CPS 206

Well after a super busy week, I am happy to be able to get a chance to participate in this weeks Card Positioning Systems sketch (#206)... though I am just barely squeaking this card in before the deadline.

What I love about the CPS sketches, is that it really makes me think outside my usual 'go to' layouts that I seem to always end up using.

Here was the layout we had to play with:



And here is what I came up with (as always, sorry about the pic quality):



Ingredients:
Stamp: Pink Cat Studios
Ink: Versafine

CPS 204

Another CPS sketch completed.


This week the sketch was actually based on a square card, however, since I don't have any envelopes that are square, and I actually wanted to send this card in the mail this morning, I had to fudge the layout to work with a standard rectangular card. (hopefully this isn't frowned upon.... not entirely sure of the rules.)



Anyways, here is the sketch we had to work with:

Make a Wish!

So yesterday after I came home from work, I got a message saying that my grandfathers birthday dinner had been moved up a week.... to that evening.

Of course I didn't have a card made yet, so I quickly threw one together for him... super easy layout and a quick colouring job (luckily I already had a bday image stamped and embossed) and here is the end result:

CPS sketch

Finally had a chance to participate at one of the awsome sketches over at CPS.
I just loved the simplicity of the sketch this week, and I knew instantly that I wanted to do a sparkly valentines day card with it.


Here is the sketch:

Here is what I came up with (sorry about the picture quality... no natural light available)
