LAST SKETCH OF 2008

Hi all!! WOW!! What a busy week this has been! My son arrived late Tuesday night and I spent the day hanging out with him yesterday while my other ones were in school. It was really nice having him all to myself - and I am going to do the same today and tomorrow as well so not much stampin' going on around here!! But, I wanted to share the last sketch of Tamara's for this year! It is a great sketch, and I hope you all can find some time to do it!! If you do, make sure you leave a link on Tamara's site so we can all see it, you may be chosen as the featured designer!! And, check out what the rest of the DT did with this one, they totally ROCKED it!!! Not everything on this card is SU! and there is NO stamping - can you believe it?! I just used my rubons, which I totally love!! And, how can you go wrong with yummy chocolate chip designer paper and card stock? The ribbon I used is very vanilla taffeta from SU! and I just love it, it is beautiful ribbon!!! If you have any questions, give me a shout, otherwise, I am off to go Christmas shopping with Zach!! I will be back with my Stamp Something Challenge tomorrow and then that is it until Christmas!!! I have family coming in next week and want to spend some time just hanging out plus I have a TON of wrapping to do!!! Enjoy your day - see ya tomorrow!
