Happy Easter! Spring is here, and it's been wet so far! We're due for more rain tomorrow! Thank you all for playing last week - I know it was a busy one! All the cards were just so creative!

Our fantastic sketch this week is based on this card by Sheri, isn't it gorgeous?!?

Here's Sheri's stunning re-take.. I totally love the black and white, yet it's so cheerful in a way for a sympathy card, just brilliant!...

And here's Jeni's beautiful sample - I LOVE this mix of fun patterns and colors, such a fun card!... 

Okay~ are you ready to ROCK it?!?

Good evening! Sorry it's so late... I have been cleaning. Spring cleaning is singing in my soul... with my allergies kickin' up, I think the energy I have built up for gardening is spilling over into cleaning... which isn't a bad thing. Just all-consuming at the moment! Anyway, a BIG THANK YOU to everyone who played last week - the cards were exceptional!

This week's sketch to play with is based on this fantastic card by Erin... it gives off a little retro vibe to me - so cool....

Jeni created this hip little number - love it -

And this fabulous card by Sheri...

Okay~ are you ready to ROCK it?!?

Ahh, the weekend! Life seems to get a little more crazy busy as the kids get older! We had a jam~packed day - craft day the library, lunch out and a trip to one of the smaller (and less busy) parks in town. I think the children had a wonderful day! Thank you all so much for playing last week - YOU ROCKed IT!

Our sketch this week is based in this little card by me...

Here's my re-take...

Here's Erin's, don't you love this combination of paper - so CHIC!

And Jeni's is fantastic! I love the mod twist & the string is perfect!

Sheri's card is brilliant! Love the nautical theme!
