You Did It

I have about 5 minutes to post before running my littlest dancer to her hip hop class.

So here goes...

Today is the start of a new challenge blog called Poppy Sketches




And in an effort to bounce around and try as many sketch challenges as I can, I decided to plunge right in on the first sketch


It's a sketch with a color challenge and this is what I imagined


I'd like to tell you all about the yummy new ink I bought from Papertrey Ink, but I think this close-up picture will do a better job


Um, can ya tell I'm in love with gold right now?

I wasn't sure if I was supposed to do a floral thing -- it seems the DT did, so I went with this fabulous Teresa Collins paper that made me think of overlapping flower petals.

I have another card to post and details from my oldest daughter's recent trip to Washington D.C.  I'm one proud momma and I have to share.

The short version is that she went to represent the state of Washington to advocate for diabetes research.

Back soon with more crafty business...
