Ooh! Summertime

Goodness, another week ends for our summertime!  Two relatives have been cut loose into the world and their graduation parties done and over with.

So without further delay . . . there is a new challenge over at Stamping with the Dragon and this week it's a sketch to go with a summertime theme!  Sketches really help me keep up the mojo, without it and all my fellow crafters, I'd truly stumble!  The chair was sewn with red stripes, the ball was glittered up inside the dimensions gel and sea shells from Walmart were added for that beach feel.  The extras here were so much fun and allowed me to really dig in and personalize it for all of you!

My craft show is this Sunday, hope it all goes well!  If you're in the Ypsilanti area, come by and visit at the "Corner Brewery" 10 to 3!
