Sketch #10

It's begining to look a lot like Christmas around here! What's it like where you are? Do you have feet of snow or are you going to suffer from a green Christmas? It has yet to be seen what the Jolly Red Fellow will see when he arrives in Fredericton, NB

This is the last sketch of 2011! We are going to change some things up in the new year. Stay tuned!

Thanks Dana!

Sketch # 9!

Today's lesson will be brought to you by the letter F. An odd letter isn't it? Not something we use commonly like S or T, but something that is saved for special occasions like Frosting or Flowers

Sketch # 6 - Fall Favorites

Fall is absolutely my favorite time of year. We have beautiful colors at every turn. This also seems to be the time of year that I am most inspired and most productive. Perhaps it's the scrapbook I am working on for my baby sister's 18th birthday or the jewelry I am frantically trying to make for Christmas, but I just seem to get more done in these months. 

Our lovely ladies this time around produced some great examples here!

And Pam... busting out two! Way to go!

Until next time...

Sketch # 5

Hello again to all my friends, I'm glad you came to play.....  oh wait... am I quoting Barney? I think its time to get some time away. Hahaha!

Can you believe it's October already? What are some of the things you love about Fall? I love the fall colors and the leaves falling. Fall temperatures sit much better with me then the searing heat (sorry to all you Sun Babies out there). The best thing about Fall?? Everyone gets back to scrapping this time of year! 

Here is a simple sketch that I came up with that can be manipulated and mastered to suit every style. Enjoy!
