Live...Love...Laugh

Good morning! Who's glad it is Friday?  It is still a busy day and weekend ahead but at least it is the weekend, right?  Today, is a new sketch from Sketches by Carly.  We are sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps today so we got to pick out the image we'd like to use.  Fun stuff!

So the image I chose is called Beautiful Blocks - Live Love Laugh.  Wonder why I might like it?  Haha!  (Just a little hint for ya if you like it...it is on sale for $1.50!)  The papers are from an old Taylored Expressions Kit and I added a photo corner SVG that I cut with my Cricut.  Most of the rest of it is pretty basic.  I'm disappointed that the color didn't come out very well as this is very pretty in real life.  Oh, and like the post yesterday this is not a card.  It is for decoration in my craft room. 

Now, don't forget the challenge is good for two weeks so you have until Jan 20th to play along.  If you win you will receive 7 Bugaboo images of your choice.  Score!  Make sure you go check out what the other design team members made.  Their links are in my side bar.  And since this actually has butterflies on it I'm entering it in Flutter By Wednesday's challenge which is open this week!


So, tomorrow I'll be showing you my scrapbooking resolution (so to speak) for the year and I bet it isn't what you think it will be.  Hope you'll stop back tomorrow!


Thought of the day:  Learn to appreciate what you have before time makes you appreciate what you had.
