WOOT! WOOT!!
I have my video done ๐ YEAH! I spent ALL night on it. Long story. I think it will help you all-fingers crossed.
I will upload it Monday. Sorry. I have my niece here (YEAH! She is awesome! Ill post photos soon too!) and 2 Papertrey posts for tomorrow, so I’ll wait till then since I worked SOOOOOO hard on the video, and think it deserves it OWN space to share. Plus it IS Monday ๐ So it will be perfect for Monday’s with My Time.
I feel 100% better-happy about that ๐ Can’t afford to be sick.
Here is my sweet Noah! Recuperating on the couch, holding his get well cardย I made him.
He keeps it next to him on the couch ๐
Noah had a good night, still in pain, but OK! The “area” is lookin OUCH! still. He is all emotional from the meds! OH BOY!! Cry at the drop of a hat. Can you tell he’s a bit “loopy”?! LOL! Poor kid.
Thisย is the card forย Noah!
He asked for a “Noah holding a dinosaur-in blue”. Here is my interpretation of it.
I made this using Dress up Billy, Sentiment is from Billy Plate 1.
This is from my sketch mytimess22. I used some old SU! paper (yes Im trying to use up old paper!) I was SOOO tempted to add ribbon but I knew that would “over do it”.
I did the stars using the Star Nestabilities, and some glitter!! I think they look really cool.
His head is 3d. As is his hospital gown, which is paper pieced.
The “hospital gown” was made from the “graduation gown” from the Dress Up Lily & Billy set. I thought it looked JUST like one, and it totally resembled one Noah had to wear for his surgery.
I wished I had a little IV pole! LOL! That would have been cute. I should have drawn one! LOL! YEAH! RIGHT!!!
Noah really liked it, and thats all that matters.
Anyway-I have a sketch packed with inspiration!! I hope it inspires you to get stamping!
Check out the DT samples too!

Get Well Soon!
I am in LOVE with this card! LOVE!!!!!! The colors, layout-all of it!
This is one of my FAVORITE sets from LAD Damask! Its ON SALE —>20% OFF this week!! SO RUN! The sentiment is a single called Get Well Soon!
I created the flower, and made it 3D as well. I then drew a border around my image, for added interest, and a illusion of another layer ๐
Then I made another card-I was SOOOO inspired ๐
Whootin Hi
How flippin adorable is that?!
I altered the sketch a bit by adding the ribbon, and sentiment circle. (sentiment is fromPTI Wise Owl set)
I LOVE the owls in non-traditional colors. Inspired by MORE SU! paper! LOL!
I have had these owls Hoo-Hoo There from Stampavie’s Rachelle Anne Miller line-for MONTHS! They were the first image I bought from them, and FINALLY got to use it. I LOVE owls.
These are the CUTEST owls ever.
I cut their eyes/beaks to make them POP!
As you can tell lately Im all about POP!! Nothing is better than 3D!! A simple quick way to make a WOW!
I colored them with Copic markers, sponged some ink, and added some glitter.
Done.
I love the end result of this with the sketch! I hope you get to try it out, and send us a link.
Well thats it. The baby duty calls. Boy getting this post done took me 4 hours in between caring for the baby. I forgot how time consuming these little beings are. I so missed the baby smell and cuddles.
I’m in heaven today ๐
OK check back tomorrow for my 2 new posts!!!

Lauren! I LOVE LOVE LOVE your first card! It’s soooo gorgeous! I totally agree…the layout, colors, sentiment…everything came together perfectly :O) LOVE IT! The second card is soooo adorable as well! I never consider using unconventional colors for animals…least of all owls, but they are fabulous!
Glad Noah is recovering well. Sorry to hear about him being so emotional ๐ Hope he keeps on a swift, painless track to a full recovery.
Enjoy your time with your niece today. I miss the smell of a baby also ๐ I’m kind of jealous :O)
Hopefully I’ll be back later today or tomorrow with my take on your sketch.

Awe – look at Noah – he’s so darn cute – hope the emotions improve ๐ {{{HUGS}}} Lovin’ your cards girl!! Those owls are so cute! Let me just tell you – I can NOT color owls a color other than they are ‘supposed’ to be…I’ve tried, and they turn out awful. just awful. Love yours!!

Enjoy that baby!!!
Glad to hear Noah is doing well. The card you made him is absolutely adorable!
The sketch cards are gorgeous too!
Too darn cute Lauren :o) I swear everytime I see PTI’s **Lily & Billy** characters, they so remind me of your kids. I mean c’mon, how close are the features of Billy and Noah? Even the outline of their hair.
Thanks for the idea of colouring the owls outside of the “box” ~ they look great in those shades.
P.S. Have a good **SNIFF** of your niece’s head for me too. LOL
Gorgeous cards!! You’re amazing to fit it all in with your kids, Noah’s procedure, babysitting your niece and everything else you’ve got going on. Have you figured out a way to slow time down in your world?? LOL
Thank you again for sharing with us. Love it!
All your cards are great! I’m glad Noah is doing well. He does look a little drugged, but that had to hurt!!! Sure hope he feels better soon without the drugs.
noah’s card is so adorable – i think it is awesome that he wanted a card from mommy – how precious
I love, Love, LOVE your first get well card!!!! The colors are stunning! Is that satin ribbon PTI’s? Its beautiful! Thanks for the inspiration! :>
Love the cards.
A friends son went through a mild depression after surgery and the parents were told it was caused by the anesthesia. I keep forgetting to ask my childs Ped.
