SCS sketch Cards

Good Morning!
I'm so excited for today!! This afternoon I'm meeting an old friend from Jr/Sr High School that I haven't seen in nearly 20 years!! I must admit I'm a little nervous too.
I was at the school helping with pictures all day yesterday but I did have about 30 minutes to spare before heading out. So I checked out the Sketch Challenge on SCS. It was a pretty simple one and I whipped up these two cards for it.
Stamps: Trendy Trees; Cardstock: PTI white, Baja, Parisian Breeze Specialty; Inks: Choc chip; Accessories: Eyelet Border Punch, Martha Stewart Butterfly Punches, Silver Brads, Dimensionals, Curly Label Punch
Here is the second card I made with the sketch. This one is all SU!
Stamps: Inspired by Nature, Cute & Curly; Cardstock: Tangerine, Saffron, Olive, WW and Haiku dp; Inks: Olive, Tangerine; Accessories: Boho Blossoms Punch, Curly Label Punch, Brads, Dimensionals
Betty asked yesterday about hearing a Clorox ad when my blog loads. I don't hear that and am wondering if anyone else does?
Thanks for stopping by!

These cards are both fabulous! Love your colour choices. I especially love the colours of the second card. I loved that Haiku DSP, too bad I never got any ...

Just beautiful! I heard a Clorox ad yesterday when I had Google reader open, but there weren't any actual blogs open at the time, so I thought it was Google forcing more ads on me. I don't hear anything today, though. :)

I had ads on my blog yesterday, too, until I removed a ball-game that I had available to play at the bottom of my blog.
(I thought you had the same one.)
The game's site sponsor decided to link up audio ads to it! BYE BYE GAME!

SUPER adorable cards, by the way! Great border detailing!! Nicole

These are BEAUTIFUL, Dawn. TFS during your busy schedule.

No, I don't hear an ad, but I have ad /popup blockers, so maybe I wouldn't under any circumstances.

Hope your meeting is super fun!

Unknown said...

You whipped out both of these fabulous cards in 30 minutes???? I love both of them - and I wish I was that speedy!

Maria said...

Hey Dawn! Wow, how fun to meet an old friend from Jr high. I actually came across a few friends on FB that lived in my neighborhood and I haven't talked to since elementary school. It's really odd talking to them but it does feel like all those years haven't gone by. We're sort of the same in many ways.

Love both your cards!! I really love the clean lines of your cards. They have such a professional look to them. I especially love the SU cards you make!!

I must say SU still has the prettiest images and designer papers!! Awesome job on your cards as always!!
