For Cath (Sans CHA) With Love Blog Hop AND a Brand New Skipping Stones Sketch!

Happy Tuesday, everyone! Today I have TWO events to share with you! I am participating in the Blog Hop for Cath,the Trends Editor for Paper Crafts Magazine and writer of the amazing Moxie Fab World Blog! You see, due to an injury, Cath was unable to attend CHA and that is just cruddy, so she needs some cheering up! We are hear to do that! Cath...consider yourself officially CHEERED!!!! YAY! You can find the entire list of participants at Virginia's blog!



AND...because we are also releasing sketch #113 over at Skipping Stones Design this week, I thought I would combine the two and make a cheer up card for Cath using this fabulous sketch!

To Cheer You


I used the Grunge set and the Always Here set for my fun card! Pam's sketch ROCKED, so I had a lot of fun with this one!

To Cheer You (detail)


While Grunge is a great set for masculine cards, it can TOTALLY go girly, too! I love that!

So...check out the sketch challenge and play along for a chance to win some free Skipping Stones stamps!

Cath, I'm SO SO SO sorry you missed out on CHA! I actually had really hoped to go for the first time EVER this year and that didn't pan out, but I'm sure your disappointment is far greater as you know what you are missing AND it happened rather unexpectedly! I hope you are doing something FABULOUS for YOU this week! We love you!!! Get better quick, now, will ya?! :-)

Jingle Out.
