sketchfest sunday

Am I ready for this?  I sure am.   Today starts the week of Caardvarks’ Sketchfest 2009.  This is going to be a huge challenge for me.  Am I really going to be able to make 7 cards this week?  Ohhhhh, I really hope so and I plan to do my best.    I have high hopes, but I work during the middle of the day this week and it is going to be hard to come home and try to get a card done at night.  But I say “bring it.”  Wish me luck!!!!

This is for Day One of Sketchfest.  I flipped the sketch horizontally.  I recently bought a new Spellbinder nestie (Labels three) and finally got to use it today.  I embossed the “happy birthday” with clear embossing powder so it did not photograph very well.

Today was a busy day.  We celebrated my cousin’s birthday this afternoon with some yummy mexican food.  We live about 30 minutes from what I call “town” so I try to combine trips if we have to go in on the weekend.  So hubby and I left the house at 7:30 am this morning and didn’t get back till 2:00 pm.  I finally sat down to make this card at 3:00 pm.  Amazing how the day just flies away.  Back to work tomorrow.  Hope everyone had a great weekend.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look.
