OK I am off to Breakfast with Santa so this is uber fast OK!
OK Update: Moo moo is still alive. Seems to be feeling “normal” no signs of string yet, or obstruction. Family issues looking positive, and I may have found and apartment for my brother and his girlfriend! PRAISE GOD!! Amber got better and we went to Alexa’s concert-although she didn’t sing, it was cute. I am feeling better-exhausted but can’t complain. Lost 4 more lbs! Go me.
I have a bajillion emails that I will get to. With my computer service going in & out and being sick (and deadlines for my Templates (YEAH!) I have been so busy your head could spin.
Lastly all the awesome stamp and stores having great sales for us stampers is a KILLER isn’t it? I know I can’t be buying anything for me right now-not that I NEED anything KWIM? CRAZY.
Here is the sketch

Todays sketch was a fun one for me. I want to apologize for the AWFUL lighting. The photo was taken LATE last night. I may re-take it later. My computer has been running awful, and with everything going on this was taken at like 1 am.
Upon looking at the sketch – I noticed how I even altered my own design! LOL! I really wanted to used this NEW! Release image (and sentiment) from MFT called-Toteally Fantastic-which I adore, loving handbags myself ! I cut it down to fit my layout preference.
So I made it work! The sentiment was rather larger than my sketch block so I improvised. I was going for the funky Vera Bradley style look for this one 😀 and in place of the circle I chose my paper pieced handbag! The paper is a fave of mine from K & co.
Speaking of handbag-
Then I went on to use My Timeless Template Purse-onality Clutch to create a purse to match (this time of year I need to maximize every creation I can for gift giving, and this is for a teen!).
I used the same fun papers, and created a funkier handle-then was done.
OK Im running so check out the sketch team to see what they did OK!
I hope you get to try the sketch, and send us a link here. I do plan on visiting those who have done last weeks-Ive just been crazy here.
Enjoy the day, and I hope you get some MY TIME in 😀

Glad to hear that everything is looking up! Super cute card. We are going to see Santa today too. He comes in on a lobster boat down in the Harbor and then the waiting in line begins. Tyler can’t wait. Have a great day! -Molly B
So glad to hear that you are feeling better, that Amber is well, and that Moo Moo isn’t having any complications from the string! I’ll keep my fingers crossed about the apartment.
This card is perfect for a teenager Lauren, and the matching purse is adorable! I would love to play this sketch; I haven’t gotten around to doing last weeks sketch and I really liked that one too! Life is really busy for all of us these days isn’t it?
enjoy breakfast with Santa!
Glad to hear things are working out on the homefront! I know how stressful things can be!

Cute set Lauren! So happy to hear that things are looking up, despite the crazyness!!♥

I want to say Yahoo Lauren!! Glad everyone is better (Lauren, Amber, Moo Moo) and life will get back to normal if your house guest get an apartment. You sound better, less stressed. Ann Lind
Glad to hear the cat is doing better, but you do need to slow down and get some mytime for yourself my friend.
Lauren I am so glad things are getting better for you and your family. Hopefully they will continue to do so. When you mentioned your breadfast with Santa you brought back great memories for me. My dd is now 17 but I remember all our breakfast with with Santa moments it was magical. I do so miss those days but I must say every age brings new memories. Hope you and your family have a great time today with Santa and TFS.

Thanks for the inspiration Lauren. I actually used a button! Not an accessory I normally know what to do with. I know you’ve shown me, but I’m just not good at buttons, on or off clothing LOL!
