We have a new sketch challenge at Sketch Saturday this week.  Our sponsor this week is Little Miss Muffet and the prize is $25 gift certificate for the sketch challenge winner!

We are also celebrating 6 years of sketches at Sketch Saturday!  What a milestone.  To celebrate we are having a blog hop with the Little Miss Muffet Design Team :D 

Since it's the 5th Saturday, you choose any sketch 215-311.  Our version of anything goes.  There are lots of sketches to choose from, hope you will join us this week!

I used Sketch #241 today...

I rotated the sketch (upside down).

I used Babe Moon Lullaby and the patterned papers are by Studio Calico Storytime.  I loved this paper because there is a calculation at the bottom for the distance to the moon and back.  :D  So perfect for the mom and dad this will be going to.

Little Miss Muffet: Happy Mail

Hi All,

It is Thursday once again and there is a new Challenge at Little Miss Muffet - "We Wish You a Merry Christmas".  Are you ready to get out your Christmas images??  The challenge runs 2 weeks.

This is an image from Pollycraft called Happy Mail.  I love getting Christmas cards.  I've had this image for awhile, so it was nice to color her up and make a card.  The papers are from my stash - Basic Grey "Jovial".  I found this paper pad on clearance a few years ago.

The image was printed twice.  I colored the girl on one and cut her out.  On the other image I colored the mailbox and background, then add the girl image with pop dots.  The snow was painted with Copic opaque white.

Little Miss Muffet - New Release

Happy Thursday!

Today, I have a guest designer post for Little Miss Muffet.  There is a new release today and a sketch challenge going on at LMM too!

I don't know if you have seen Barbara's latest line of super cute kids - Polka Dot Pals. I just love them all! This is Neomie and she joins several other cuties in this line.  

She reminds my of my niece Jessica who starts high school this week.  I still see her at about this age, with her cute bob haircut and soccer ball.  Sigh. 

There are also 2 felines newly released today.  I used Stretching Feline.  You can see all the new releases HERE.  Notice the new shop too?  A lot has been going on at Little Miss Muffet over the summer. 

Here is the LMM Sketch I used today:

I cropped it a bit to make it a horizontal A2 size card rather than square.  We are mid-challenge so you have a few more days to enter!
