Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!!


My paper for this card is Paper Crate DIY Shop.  The main piece is embossed with Darice Ranunculus EF.  My sentiment is a clear stamp that might be Studio G??  It's one of the $1 stamps from J's of M's I picked up years ago.  The banner is cut with Spellbinders Lacy Pennants, and my flower is FloraDoodle. 


Here's our sketch for the week...

This card features Stampabilities "Tie Down the Tree" rubber stamp colored with my Spectrum Noir markers,  the Paper Studio "Cozy Lodge" DP, Sweet n Sassy Stamps Star die, CottageCutz Stitched Rectangles dies, Cuttlebug Swiss dots EF, MS branch punch, an unidentified sentiment die, and a bit of red twine from my stash.   I used my Wink of Stella pen on the tree...

The vast majority of my posts are paper crafts, but I do other things as well.  Several years ago, my mother passed on her old embroidery machine.   It wasn't working the best, but I enjoyed what I was able to do on it.  She upgraded again, and gave me her second one.  It was much better, but then it started to give me trouble.  And when the repair man says, "It's working fine," and I get it home with the same problems??  I didn't do much after that.  Last year, I found a very little used Husqvarna Designer SE on eBay for a very good price.  It works great!!  So now I'm embroidering again.

All that to say this... I made aprons for Christmas gifts this year and thought I'd share them with you.  (You can go directly to the designs by clicking on the italicized name.)
