retrosketches #7...


Good morning and HaPpY sAtUrDaY!!! Time for a new RetroSketch, but first I wanted to thank you all again for such a wonderful week last week! We had a record amount of phenomenal entries!!! So THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! Also, if you are a previous winner, you can find a link for the badge codes under the badges on the right side bar.

Our sketch today is from one of my previous cards, Daisy Girl. While that card was based on another sketch, I think I tweaked it enough to transform it into a new sketch.

Here are our takes...

retrosketches #6 / winner & shout~outs...


WOWEE - THANK YOU ALL so much for playing with us last week - we had 96 entries!!! How crazy is that? Of course, Lynn's sketch was just super fun to play with - I used it 3 times last week! Thank you again, Lynn for being our first guest designer!

Having so many beautiful cards to vote on made the DT freak out! One of them who shall remain nameless wrote this after voting, and I think it sums up how we all feel about voting...
"I agree this week was just CRAZY! I simply could not pick 3!!! It's BRUTAL—I tell ya! ...I have about a dozen that I LOVE!"
So this week's RetroSketch RockStar, for this beautifully clean, layered card (go check out her homemade embelly, too - it's awesome!) is....

ELENA!!!


And the gallery for this week's ShoutOuts is out of this world!!!

retrosketches #6...


Good morning! Sorry I'm running a bit behind today, I have been redesigning this blog for the last week, and it launched this morning! Of course I was up til 3am getting it all ready to go - LOL! The kiddies are off to an Easter egg hunt, they're so excited! The winners from last week have now been posted and you can see them HERE.

We are thrilled to have our first guest designer, Lynn, not only joining us today, but providing this sweet sketch for all of us to play along with! Her sketch is based on this card that I fell in love with a while back!

And here is Lynn's re-work, isn't it gorgeous! Thanks so much Lynn!!!


And here's our take on the sketch...
