Some Odd Girl Style Challenge #6 ~ A Sketch

Happy Thursday everyone!! Hope this post finds you all happy and healthy! It has been a great week so far in the Cortes house. The kids love being back to school and can't wait for the weekends activities (cheerleading and soccer).

Anyway, It is time for this weeks Some Odd Girl Style Challenge #6 and this week we have a great sketch for you.

For my card, I choose the adorable Balloon Kaylee for my card. I printed her out and colored her with Prismacolor markers. The dsp is from October Afternoon and the ric rac ribbon is from American Crafts. The fabulous birthday bingo card is from Jenni Bowlin. I used the new Just the Ticket stamps and die from PTI for my sentiment.

Back to School with Bugaboo

Wow!! It has been one crazy week! I apologize for my lack of posting and commenting this week. I was in my craft room on Wednesday and stepped on a scallop blade for my cutter (one of the interchangeable ones), I couldn't get the bleeding to stop so I went to the ER. Well I had to get 5 stitches and a Tetanus shot...ugh!! Then to top it off...Wednesday night I woke up with the worst headache of my life, fever, chills...the works!! Turns out I was having an adverse reaction to the Tetanus shot and this lasted for about two days!! Just crazy!!

Anyway, I am feeling much better now and it is time for this weeks Bugaboo Catch a Bug Challenge and this week we are going...Back to School!!

This adorable Bugaboo Brat from the Teacher Mini Set is just perfect for your back to school projects/cards. I made this card to slip into my daughters book bag on the first day of school. I do this every year and my kids love it!! The apple dsp is from October Afternoon and the library card is from Cosmo Cricket. The sentiment and ticket stub are from PTI.
