This week, Waltzingmouse is celebrating their 100th sketch challenge. There are lots of fun things happening to celebrate, so if you haven’t already, you really should check it out. This is one of my favourite challenges, and I hardly ever manage to play along (though I do sometimes use the sketches weeks later!), but I couldn’t miss this one!
My friend Sarah, who just so happens to design for WMS, just gave birth to a brand new baby boy… which means it’s time to get a card in the mail! I hope she’s too busy with diapers and feeding to read this post before the card reaches her… *wink*
I used my new Crate Paper goodies, which are pretty feminine looking, until you dig through… I love how it turned out! I would have loved to layer the goods on, but it *does* have to fit through the mail slot, so I held myself back…
I hope to be back tomorrow with pictures from Josie’s birthday party, so pop back in!
