friday

I meant to post Wednesday night but guess what - DATE NIGHT!!! YAY!!  Justin and I were able to sneak out for a few hours & visit the eclectic Red, Red Wine Bar which I just LOVED!!  A must see if you are ever in the Annapolis area.  We also hit Grapes Wine Bar as well before heading home.  Another fun stop with some delicious wines & tasty snacks :)




Not the best pics - such a squinter when I smile :)

On Wednesday my post was up at the Noel Mignon blog and guess what????  A new monthly sketch challenge is beginning!! YAY!!  Here is the sketch for July . . .



And here is what I came up with using the July Boardwalk kit . . .



A quick close-up on my journaling and the fun stitched circle border.  I also used a bit of washi tape from the kit here and there around the outer edge.  I have really started to enjoy playing around with this stuff recently - so fun!!



Hpefully you will join in the fun & play with this sketch.  Feel free to use a Noel Mignon kit (they're AWESOME people!!!) or just some goodies from your stash.  All the details for the challenge can be found HERE and HERE.  Hope to see some of my readers playing along!!!!  I'll be back soon with some more projects to share :)
