Hi!

Here’s my card for this week’s 2Sketches4you challenge. It’s Laura’s sketch #20. This week’s sponsor is Creative Cuts and More. They have graciously sent us DT some goodies for this week’s sketch. Check them out and play along to win $20 gift certificate from CCM!

How was your weekend? Mine was LAAAAZY!!! Saturday we stayed in our jammies, made one card, and played. In the evening we went out for some sushi. Sunday… well I had great plans, cleaning mostly, but around noon time I got really tired and fell asleep. I didn’t get up until 4 p.m. and when I woke up, hubby and M were cuddling and napping too. BUT, while I was asleep they tidied up, did some laundry, AND baked cupcakes!! Woah!!!!! So you can probably guess what I did soon after I woke up — ha ha, CUPCAKES!!!!

For this card I used the acetate and tag from CCM. THe pattern paper is October Afternoon. I pretty much followed Laura’s sketch for the inside of the card. The paper portion of the card is just a single 4.25×5.5 card. The stamp and die-cut was from Stampin-Up (the stamp is an SAB set) and on the bottom, I added some itty bitty pom-poms and twine. The pom-pom was adhered using fabric glue and the twine I tied and then adhered using glue dots. The huge ribbon is Martha Stewart and the “HI” is American Craft.

Love your scrappy style! I have some pom pom trim and I’m too intimidated to use it! You’ve inspired me to use it on a baby scrapbook I’m working on!

Your card is really cute Savitri and I love your post too – a hubby that cleans and makes cupcakes while you rest – sounds like a keeper to me!
