1. Life is good! Today I am doing three of my favorite things. First, I am participating in the sketch challenge, one of my favorites, its been a long time! Secondly, I made a card with one of my favorite sets which is almost a direct case of my own personal favorite card, one I made for DawnL when she lost two llamas. Thirdly, I am making a card to brighten the spirits of a very frightened young girl who is having some very scary medical issues right now. Another thing I have not done in a long time!
2. This was a super fun sketch. (Thanks Roxie!) I loved all of the layers. My card ended up being a 5 X 7 because I was bound and determined to use my new nesties! And I went a little overboard on the size of the panels AGAIN! Its always a huge shock when putting together the pieces of your card only to realize they cover up the base, completely! Snort! That could be a Mothermark thing!
3. I started a thread in the Need a Lift forum to request cards for Kimberly. If you would like to send her a card I have posted more details about what she is going through here.

Hey, Dirty Girl! I've been living in a cave lately and don't think I passed on my CONGRATS at your induction--certainly well deserved! Your creative talent is very evident in this sweet beauty--love the way you put the little bird on the tag too! (ps--I can't layer a card worth a darn, but I'm older and have played waaaay more Jacks than you, plus I cheat when you aren't lookin'--SNORT back at ya!)
