New Sketch Challenge is Elefun!

It has been a while since my last creative card post, but this week’s challenge from Freshly Made Sketches seemed like the perfect opportunity to use my new little elephant die. The papers all came from different sources and the twine and pink embellishments were items I already had on hand — yeah! Of course, I inked everything, but I used a pink Cat’s Eye for a more subtle look. I think this cute card would be perfect for a baby shower or young girl’s birthday.

I love your cute polka-dotted elephant. The bow on the tail is an adorable finishing touch. Thanks for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches this week!

That was 395 pages that went just about nowhere, kind of like the characters going around in circles. I was intrigued by the book and thought it had promise, but I still am not quite sure of its purpose. . .

I love this beautiful story of a little bat who learns to make his way in the world and his mama who knows when to let go and let her little one fly. . . I especially love the ending (but I won't spoil it for all you moms out there).
