Sketchy Times @ Little Red Wagon

This week at


it's Heather's turn to chose the challenge and she's saying, "Sketchy Times". She's put a fun twist on it too.....she's not showing you a sketch to use, you can pick whatever sketch you want! Just let us know the source.

I was super lazy with this one.....I just chose my own sketch - ha!  It was the challenge at LRW awhile back. Well, in truth, it's also my go-to sketch. And it's my favourite sketch too. It looks like this....


And this is what I did.....


As you can see I changed the circle to a square....which is the great thing about sketches.  You don't have to follow them exactly, just use them as a jumping off point.  Digi is from Whimsie Doodles, which has closed.  *insert super sad face here*  I always hate to see digi stamp sites close their doors.  Especially awesome ones like Whimsie Doodles. *sigh*  Die cut sentiment is from Stamplorations.

Why not give our challenge a go this week and head on over to Little Red Wagon and link up?  And, while you're there, be sure to check out the wonderful projects the other Girlfriends have created.

  4. Wonderful card, Jan! Love your paper choices and the paper piecing on the snowmen's scarves, as well as that great let it snow sentiment. Like you, I felt the same about Whimsie Doodles. I especially liked her funny ones.

Okay, so ever since I started my blog (well, maybe not right from the get-go, it was probably a good six months or so before I realized you could change it from just "Leave your comment") I've tried to come up with something witty to type here.

*sitting with brow furrowed in concentration*...*staring at the ceiling while pursing lips*...*resting with head on hand while tapping foot*...

Nope, I still got nothing.
