OWH Sketch #120

Hi bloggers!  I've had a fun, relaxing weekend making cards, shopping and catching up on housework.  Today's OWH sketch inspired me to use a few Tim Holtz stamps for the first time.  Here's my take on the sketch:



I distressed the tag with Walnut Stain and used the Birdcage, quote and small bird from Tim Holtz's collections.  I embossed the quote with Martha Stewart Antique Gold embossing powder.  The oval shape was a little too large, so I may try this sketch again.

I've made Mother's Day cards to send out, as well as 12 cards for OWH - wow!  I've become sooo addicted to making cards.  I hope everyone else had a great weekend.

  2. you had a productive week end - that feels good doesn't it - you did a great job with the sketch - I ended up just using a rectangle instead of an oval.
