Shelby's Sketch - April

This  month at Two Scrapbook Friends, Shelby had this fun sketch to share: 

I decided to flip the sketch so that my photo was more facing inwards.  Supplies are a big jumble on this one, there is some MME, Creative Memories, Recollections, Cosmo Cricket, and Precocious Paper. If you haven't checked her out on Etsy, be sure to drop by!!

What was up in March...

So still a little behind getting things all sorted, and the renos have gone a bit crazy in the house lately, but good news... almost done!!

Here are the projects I put together in March:

This was for a 2SF challenge to use a frame. I got the frame from the Silhouette store. 

Supplies: MME, Jolee's, Silhouette

This challenge was to use a die-cut. The large bee is one and from the Silhouette store as well. 

Supplies: MME, Jolee's, Silhouette, American crafts, unknown

This was a sketch challenge of a sketch by Christa. 

Supplies: American Crafts, Momenta, unknown

This was Ann's sketch in the month of February, and given my sister was a Valentine's baby, I thought it would be perfect. 

Supplies: Fancy Pants, Momenta, American Crafts, unknown

This was a fun sketch by Shelby. 

Supplies: All unknown!

This was also Shelby's sketch, which I used in conjunction with the "stamp something unusual" challenge, which I stamped with a oranges bag and acrylic paint. Supplies are all unknown.

This one was fun. 

Supplies: American Crafts, Dylusions, Tim Holtz, Cosmo Cricket, Creative Memories

Wondering where I've been?

Well, its been a hectic few months here, with family drama, a few bereavements, the holidays and a bit of work travelling all thrown in.

February saw me finally getting back into crafting, I completed all the monthly challenges and the Let's Connect Online crop challenges at Two Scrapbook Friends.

The beginning of March threw me for another loop, but I am back, and hope to stay that way.

So here are the projects I completed in February, I'm not going to do a whole post on each since that would just leave you all spammed :)

Hi Ladies,

I made up this lil cutie for this challenge:
