Bird bath

-
Hello everyone!  Hope you had a fabulous Saturday!  I spent mine going to the passport office this morning with our paperwork and trying to get our new passport... Took over 2 hours... yikes
... And then it was some office work :(  But I did get a few last hours of the day playing!!!  And that felt sooooo good!  I really miss my "studio".  I prefer now after doing the WOYWW to call it a "studio" than my laundry/craftroom ;)  Seems more creative!!!

So I made some DT cards which I can't show you... but I also did some cards for the progressive freebie challenges that I do!  This time it's for the fabulous Outlawz one.  It's called Bird Bath and it's from Sandi Samples

To make this card I went into my scrap pile and used some leftover papers!!!  I added some ribbon that I purchased at a local store that's closing (so sad but some pretty great deals).  I added some flowers from my stash as well as some brads from Eyelet Outlet.  The digi and the paper underneath it was cut using my quickutz nesting ovals.  The sentiment was cut using my fancy label 2 tag.

Here's a closer look at the digi that I colored with my copics and the fabulous sentiment from Create with TLC

I followed this great sketch to make it:

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
  1. Sketch saturday - Sketch
  2. Outlawz challenges - Freebie
  3. Allsorts challenge - in the garden
  4. Word-play-saturday-june-challenge - Summertime
So that's it for me for now!  Tomorrow I have more office work to do... and some housework but hopefully there will be some fun time as well!

Hugs
