TAMARA'S SKETCH CHALLENGE

Hi all!!! WOW!! I can't believe how fast this week is going....I did not believe my son when he told me that it was Thursday today, lol!!! My days have all been blending in together lately it seems! But, I do have a card to share today for Tamara's Sketch Challenge. Tamara is doing a Blast from the Past with this sketch....I love it, and it was new to me, lol! Great sketch, it is definitely a keeper for me to use again! I used one of my new Whimsy stamps - I have been dyin' to ink up these cute little mice and I decided this sketch was the perfect debut for them! I love all the Whimsy images but I have to say, this one is my fave!!! They are just too adorable! And, really fun to color too! This will be added to the stash of cards I give to my husband randomly in his bag he packs for the week, in his truck, or just on his pillow for when he gets home. I have not done one in awhile so maybe this one will be a good one for when he comes home again on Friday!! Make sure you pop on over to Tamara's site and check out the other DT members, they are all amazing!! And, leave them some love on their blog - the list can be found on my sidebar! And, why not try out the sketch yourself? I know we would love to see it, so upload it to the site and we will all come take a look!! Now, I am off to stamp for some projects I have been needing to finish but check back tomorrow when I have the Stamp Something challenge of the day!! As always, thanks for stopping by, I love that you do!!
