Retrosketches 4 & 3


Well, I am still having LiveWriter issues today but hopefully this will post through Blogger!  I am just not computer-savvy enough to figure out why things happen the way they do!  Anyhoo, I needed a quick thank-you card, and the RetroSketches sketch#4 was perfect to get me started:

And here is my card, done in monochromatic shades of Wisteria Wonder:


I used Butterfly Prints, Short & Sweet and Style Beautiful, along with a Label Framelit and Adorning Accent Embosslit.  Here's a closer view:


I also did a card for the RetroSketch #3, but never got a chance to post it:


I used one of Arielle's digital images, colored with Copics.  I don't have a picture of Cassidy to share today, but how about one of Pumpkin, sleeping in one of her favorite places.....a SU box!


Enjoy your day!

Inspite of the "security threats", I'm delighted to see you STELLAR, as usual, creations! SUCH stunning work! AND... PUMPKIN! Glad to know those boxes are SO universally loved by our feline friends! xoxo!
