exclusive...you...me


Happy Saturday! Hope your weekend is off to a great start! I'm off to get a much needed haircut here in a bit. Thank heavens for Tracy, she can work magic!


The good news...I have some rejected Paper Crafts sketch cards so I have something to share! Whoo! Hoo! *smile* I worked last Sunday and made 6 cards, 2 of which got picked up (I think it helped that of the 6 sketches I used, none were in the top 10 of submitted sketches, better odds!), so I'm happy as a clam! That leaves 4 others I can share now. (See how I'm good at math like that? No wonder I'm a teacher!). Of course, two of them are Halloween. I don't know why I have a thing about making Halloween cards, they rarely get picked up! ha!


Anywhooo, (Have I mentioned my dh HATES that expression?! There's little I do wrong in his eyes, ha!, but saying this is one of them!), I used sketch 48 for this one. I do LOVE working with sketches! You can see all the sketches at Paper Crafts Connections, here. I had these adorable Pink Paislee pocket envelope things from a Studio Calico kit, I think, so I thought they would be perfect for the sketch. I paired it up with yummy new Stampin' Up! Sweet Stitches paper. I had that blank moment again where I thought: What am I going to do for a sentiment on the big, blank front of the envelope. I tried to pull "you me" to go along with the "exclusive buttons"...it was a stretch...as you can see...and rejected! ha!


Anywhooo, (again!) I better go get cleaned up. That's just one of those courteous things I do before I go sit in the hairstylist's chair. Hope you have a super fun Saturday! Thanks so much for stopping by! Hugs and happy stamping!


Recipe
Cardstock: SU Crumb Cake, Sweet Stitches designer series paper.

"See how I'm good at math like that? No wonder I'm a teacher!" <--- Lol!

Hey, Angie! I was wondering if you had submitted projects... Congrats on getting two cards picked for publication, that's awesome! I have also two projects that were selected for publication (out of twenty, though, so lots of rejects coming to my blog as well...)

I like the cute pocket and button on this card! Looking forward to seeing the other projects you'll post!

Happy weekend!
Cindy
