Inspirational Cards Sketch #14

Dawn has another great sketch this week at Inspirational Card Sketches and a great RAK for a giveaway to some lucky participant. Be sure and check out her site. I have worked on my card of and on between working on sewing projects -- multi-tasking has been the name of the game this week.

Paper: K & Company Wild Rasberry Paper Pad, Solid cardstock

Embellishments: Primas, grosgrain ribbon, button, raffia, hot fix crystals

I distressed the edges of all the paper and inked with Tea Dye distress ink. The sentiment was printed out on the computer and I adhered it with foam dots to give it a little more definition. For a finishing touch, I randomly scattered hot fix crystals.

I left work early today to meet my hubby and sister-in-law at the nursing home so we could have birthday cake to celebrate my mother-in-law's birthday. I embroidered a light weight fleece throw for her to have to cover up with when she is chilled. But I failed to take a picture of it last night before I wrapped it.

I am waiting for hubby to bring home Chinese for dinner -- I have a real taste for Egg Drop soup and egg rolls tonight. I have a tote bag to finish and then I will be finished with my must do sewing projects. Will post pics when the bag is finished.

Luck, love and laughter,

Judy

The idea of Chinese food makes my stomach growl. I haven't had it in so long!

Hope all is well. I'm catching up on the blog rounds.
