Yesterday, we left at 5:30 am to drive to a volleyball tournament 2 hours away. The girls got 3rd place and played really well! We got home about 6:00pm and Ben had a soccer game at 9:20pm. Yes, I was REALLY tired last night :)
Today starts a new week and it's going to be an exciting one!
A new challenge for today, and this time, 2RedBananas is part of it! We are sponsoring the House Mouse Challenge :) It's a sketch challenge and Jami created the sketch.
This is my take on the sketch. I used the "Warmth for Winter" image and colored it with Prismacolor pencils and minerals spirits, then I went over all the yarn with Angel Wings Shimmerz so it shines :) The "warm wishes" is from "Snowman Love". The papers are from October Afternoon - Hometown collection and the ribbon is from May Arts. The brads are from my stash and I have no idea who made them, sorry.
This is such a great sketch to play with. I hope you'll join us in the challenge.Our quote for the day: "Where there is great love there are always miracles." - Willa Cather
Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great day!
