TESC94 Another Cute Penguin
December 11th, 2009
Happy Friday! 
It’s time for another fun sketch from Taylor – TESC94 – and I encourage you to play along with us. 🙂
I have another penguin for today’s card. This one is from the Our Craft Lounge Crafty Clear set Snow Place Like Home. You know I LOVE cute penguins and I considered doing *a penguin a day*, but I’ve just got so much going on right now that I’m not sure I can commit to anything else right now – even if it’s just stamping a penguin card every day! LOL!
I paired Snow Place Like Home with my TE Pretty Please Card Kit (ummm…it might have still been out on my table.) First glance at that kit might not scream Christmas at you, but I think it works well with these cute images. (I did add some SU Old Olive cardstock for the matting.) I added some KaiserCraft rhinestones (along scallops created with a Crafter’s Workshop stencil) and some rose satin ribbon from my stash.
Image is colored with Copics and a Zig Painty Pen. Sentiment is from Holiday Wonder and I used my new Martha Stewart icicle punch at the bottom.
Yesterday was my BFF Ruth’s birthday. She’s been living up in Washington for the past few years and I love to send her something I’ve made. I mailed out the Sweet Occasions card set I posted last week – click here to see it. I wanted to show you what I did for the insides of the cards. Rather than stamp sentiments in each card, I made an asssortment of sentiments that she can add in as she needs them.
All of those sentiments and little images are included in the Sweet Occasions stamp set. Each sentiment is matted to coordinate with the cards and has Taylor’s sticky tape on the back so they are ready to be stuck in the cards as needed. I think this will make the cards more versatile and more useful than if I had finished off the cards myself.
Tonight I’m having a special class just for my Club girls. We’re meeting early for pizza and then making a card set using the Sunny Day Scrappin’ Kit. I’ll share pictures of that project soon. I’m looking forward to hanging out with the girls tonight. I hope you have a fantastic weekend. Thanks for stopping by.
ETA: Wow I was really tired when I wrote this post last night…I totally forgot to link the Sketch Crew Girls – D’oh!!!!! Let’s see what everyone else has cooked up today:

To best individual health insurance plans solve this purpose, online lenders are more prevalent.
Debt consolidation might be an alternative worth considering, but for best individual
health insurance plans it to post losses in the
early months because necessary expenditures simply outpace earnings.
Everything from credit card debt consolidation transfer will exceed your main credit card limit.
