This weekend I went to a town about an hour north of Las Vegas called Mesquite. Two Creative Memories Consultants organize the event which consists of 26 hours of scrapbooking time in a ballroom at the hotel we stay at. We had 71 women attend this time! They have been doing this twice a year for over six years now. I try to go whenever I can, but haven't been doing much scrapbooking the last several times. I would rather play with stamps, kwim? My darling husband still thinks I scrapbook....so I bring a scrapbook that I did several trips ago and when I come home I show it to him and say "Look what I did!" LOL. (People from Streator who read this...you know who you are....you cannot tell him about this).
I brought a few sketch challenges to get caught up on the first card was for the MFT Sketch Challenge posted a week ago and the second was for Beate's Weekend Sketch Challenge. For both cards I used Cosmo Cricket paper and My Favortite Things Stamps. The bunny, chick and flower are from Eggstra Special and the flowers behind the bunny are from the brand new Punch a Bunch set. To get the super soft look on the flowers I stamped the image in versamark and used my chalks and a sponge applicator to add color. I also used the faux stitching technique on that card.
Don't forget you still have a couple hours to enter to win one of my baskets, see previous post.
Thanks for stamping by!

LOL does he not remember the scrapbook page from one year to the other?! lol
I like your cards!:)
That definetly sounds like something I would totally do too. I started out scrapbooking, but for about 4 years now have only done stamping. Knowing if he is like my husband, he knows you didn't make it that time and just being supportive of what you show him. I really love all the goodies you show on your blog and sure hope I get into making one soon!
Thanks for sharing:o)

Your cards are so cute!! I am a little jealous though, and I don't know if it is a good thing or not, but my husband would NEVER fall for that!! He still remembers the first card I ever gave him!!
That sounds like so much fun. Too funny about the scrapbook. My husband would probably have the same reaction.
Super cute cards!
