Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge – Thank You

Happy Monday Stampers!

Well so far my cold has not been too bad.  I think because I am trying to be proactive with it and getting sleep as much as possible has helped.  Hopefully I can keep it at bay so it does not get as bad as Jess’ and Zoie’s was.

This weekend I helped Zoie work on some gifts for the workers at her school as well as a small gift for her teachers and 2 gift card holders for the gift cards Jess got them.  Here are some pictures of the gifts.

These are little candy holders for each worker.

These are antibacterial gel holders – yes the trees are on crooked as Zoie did this herself.

Ok that is enough of what Zoie and I have been up to.  I was nominated to be a part of the Creative Blog Hop by
fellow Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator Eileen LeFevre.  She has a great blog and you can see here work HERE.    

I love creating and sharing on my blog.  My hope is that someone will be inspired to try something new or to be creative themselves.  One of my favorite things to do is to participate in sketch challenges.  I am on a few design teams and feel it is an honor to be asked to design for a team.   Today I have a card I made for Mary Jo’s Monday Lunchtime sketch challenge.  We have a fun sketch this week.

 

I don’t often do long cards.  I usually sell my cards and it is easier to sell regular invitation size ones.  I modified the sketch to be the invitation size.  Here is what I created for the sketch challenge.

I hope you will head over to Mary Jo’s blog to see what the other ladies created for the challenge.  We would love to have you play along with us.  

Here are some questions that are part of the Creative Blog hop to help you know a little about me.

1.  What are you working on?

I am working on making cards for my blog.  I am also getting ready to make a Winter collage to display in my house.

2.  How does your work differ from others in your genre?

I don’t know if my work differs from others.  We each have our own style based on our strength and amount of time we have been stamping.  I would hope when someone sees my cards they will smile.

3.  Why do you create what you do?

I love to create and share.  Making cards to send is one of items I like to create.  The art of sending a card – handmade or bought – is slowly dying in this age of technology.  My hopes is that the person who receives my handmade card will smile!

4.  How does your creative process work?

I don’t know how my creative process works.  Sometimes I use a sketch for inspiration, sometimes I use colors to inspire me, and sometimes I will have an idea I want to carry out.


Thanks for visiting me today.  I hope I have inspired you to be creative.  I have nominated 2 other people for the Creative Blog Hop for next week.  Have a Marvelous Monday!
