"Saturday Sketch" Challenge
Two, because I missed last week's, being away! (I'll post some photo's from our trip later in the week- still going through them!)
First, last week's challenge.
This was the 'sketch', or layout:
And this is my interpretation:
I lined it with matching paper. You can just about see it here-
Don't ask me the make of the stamp- I've no idea; I bought it from E-bay and it doesn't have a label! It arrived when I was away so this was the first time I've used it. Many thanks to Miss Peach for suggesting I try E-bay for a more economical way of finding nice stamps!
Next, this week's sketch:
And this is what I came up with:
I'm quite pleased with them. Very pleased with the robin card! The robin image is from Crafty Individuals.

Yay, you're home! I popped in on a hunch. :) Sorry about so much rain, but, I'm happy that you had fun.
Your new stamp is so cute! I have to try e-bay. At our local craft store nice big stamps average around $15.00! Ouch! I did buy three on sale though. :)
I need to update my blog. Probably after I wake up. It's after midnight Tuesday morning here.
Have a wonderful day and give your kitties a smooch for me when you see them!
Hugs,
Lorianna
