Chalk Fun

Happy MDS Monday - Tara has a fun sketch for us this week - featuring a little camera.  I turned this into a two page spread for Elliot's 2014 book - He had such good facial expressions when he got too much chalk on his hands.  I can totally understand - chalky hands are uncomfortable.


Here is Tara's sketch...

Hope you join in the challenge - remember to post your creation back to the MDS Monday blog so we can take a peak.  Have fun!

It's Your Celebration

Welcome to Sunday Stamps - we have pink colours this week - I'm sorry that the Strawberry Slush doesn't photograph very well!

The design team has a lot of wonderful variation with this colour combo - it's always fun to see how people use colours.  Pink is a hard one for me - but I thought a whack of pink icing would be perfect for someones'  birthday.


I'm sorry to say that this is my last Sunday Stamps post as a member of the Design Team.  I have decided, after long long long deliberation, to step down.  It was a very hard decision, and not easily made.  I've enjoyed working with the creative women on the design team and hope to stay in contact in the "posting world".  I will continue to participate in the challenges because I love sketch and colour challenges….!

Hope you have a wonderful Sunday

Happy Canada Day….

Welcome to MDS Monday - this week, Heidi has a family themed page for us.  Rather than doing a family tree - I turned one of our MDS trees into a Maple tree as a focal point for a couple of Canada Day pages.  Once I had all of the leaves placed on the tree I grouped them together and then copied them over to the second page.  I will also be saving this tree as a grouped object that I can use in the future.  Love that feature about MDS.


Here is Heidi's sketch - have fun with it and remember to link your creation back to the Challenge blog.

I'm still on vacation at this time - so I'm keeping this short. 
Have a great day!
