As I was doing my usual surfing, I came across another Card Sketch site called Card Patterns. I had a little extra time this week, so I thought I’d join in with them. I need to build up my card supply so participating in the sketches serves a twofold purpose: I get to have fun & and I get to focus on a goal.
It’s a WIN-WIN situation…

Here’s a card based on 2 Sketches 4 You Laura #20. I loved the sketch. I chose to make a birthday card for my mother. If I keep up with the challenges, I’ll have my cards done well before I need to send them. This is for an “end of March” birthday… I'll even have time to make some of the miscellaneous cards that I need to do. Could this be the end of my procrastination? Only time will tell.

Here’s card based on 2 Sketches 4 U - Kazan’s Sketch #20. I made this one just in the nick of time since the deadline is tomorrow. I love to combine black with nice vibrant colors. In addition to combining colors that I love, I also got a chance to use my new Fiskars’ punch and some new digital brushes.
Sounds like a good day to me.

Here are a couple of Valentine’s Day cards that I made. I chose simple designs (as I do with most of my cards). I said that I wouldn’t use the standard Valentine’s colors for the cards, but in the end I stayed with the familiar. One day I’m going to step outside the box and get fancy with color… But today is not the day.
Until next time,
Enjoy…
2 Sketches 4 You has really provided lots of inspiration for this year’s cards. Here’s another February card that must get mailed today. The card is based on the 2S4Y SKETCH titled Laura's Sketch #19.
I decided to flip the orientation and change the shape slightly. This one was fun and I’ve gotten another birthday card ready to go. Can’t ask for more than that.
Enjoy…
I’ve got a couple of February cards that I need to make so headed over to the 2 Sketches 4 You site to see this week’s sketch. Kazan’s Sketch #19 was perfect for this quick and simple card. Since the card was so simple, I decided to make a matching box and fill it with candy… The box was a free Pazzles file that I got from one of the online Pazzles’ Yahoo groups.
Well, if you haven’t guessed by the look of the card and the Mike & Ike Tropical candy, this card is for an early teen. On the inside of the card, I adhered a small envelope with a gift card inside.
That’s it for now.
Enjoy…
