Good Morning! Today is Tuesday and time for the second sketch for the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge! Priscilla is still offering the opportunity to win her awesome $100 gift certificate for Stampin Up! You can click here for more details on the rules and how to win.
Last week we had 46 entries for our kickoff. The projects and cards were absolutely wonderful! Thanks to everyone who played along! Since there were so many awesome designs, the team decided that it would be fun to recognize or showcase one project each week and pass along this fun award. (It is a blinkie but I chose not to display it as such since blinkies make me sick personally. Sorry!)
This week we want to recognize this awesome creation by Sassy. Congratulations Sassy!!
If you are interested in this award, please make sure you have your card or project uploaded to Mr. Linky here, before Sunday at Midnight.
Here is today's sketch! It is truly another fun sketch! Here is my card with this sketch. I used one of my favorite sets from Our Daily Bread Designs called Sing to the Lord. It is suppose to be spring after all, although one would not know it with the 23 degree temperature this a.m. When I think of spring, I think of the beautiful blue birds that Scott and I love to watch making nests in our blue bird houses. I watercolored my image and used the sentiment from Our Daily Bread Designs - Cross of Christ. I plan to send this as a birthday card to one of my friends. Hope she doesn't see it here. Lol! When I was the scallops on the sketch, I thought it would be fun to scallop a piece of ribbon. Instead of just a tag at the bottom, I added a hatpin with some beads in my stash. To keep with the nature theme, I distressed it a bit.
CARD RECIPE
Stamps: Our Daily bread Designs- Sing to the Lord, Cross of Christ
Paper: SU Urban Garden,Pacific Point CS, Bazill Bitter Chocolate, White CS, and watercolor paper
Accessories- hatpin and beads, SU Markers for watercolor, sewing machine and brown thread, prima flowers, old olive ribbon, and textile cuttlebug embossing folder.
I hope this card inspires you to create your own version or project with the MMSC2 sketch. If you do, please post a direct link to Priscillas' blog here (to Mr. Linky). If you upload it to SC please use the keyword MMSC2 so we can see all your creations in one place. I look forward to seeing your creations. For more inspiration on this challenge, visit my dt sisters blogs for their eclectic and gorgeous creations: Carolynn, Charlotte, Denise, Jane, Jeni, Jessica, Kimmie, Michelle, Phyllis, Priscilla, Shawne, Sonya, and Sue. You don't want to miss out on that awesome prize so get creating!
Have a great day and thanks for visiting! I so appreciate all your comments and visits. Now that my girls are feeling a little better and atleast slept through the night I may have more time for blog hopping! You are all so inspiring!

You asked where I got my Magnolia Edwin with butterfly net, was going to send you an email but couldn't see an email address - I got him from http://www.dreamcottage.nu/english1/
I also get my Magnolia stamps from a couple of Aussie suppliers but this is the link to the home store! He's in the "Chasing Butterflies" Collection.
