Unscripted Sketches #21

Happy Saturday!! It's that time again for another sketch brought to you by Unscripted Sketches!





I used some left over Fancy Pants paper that i used for a previous project for the squares. The stamp was something I picked up in a dollar bin at Michael's a while ago. I colored it in using some Stampin' Up markers. The buttons were from my dear friend Liz....I bought these off you Liz...do they look familiar??? The strip on the bottom was a set of Martha Stewart double sided stickers and I used some glitter from my stash. The ink around the edges and the card stock were from my stash.
I have been off work since Tuesday at noon, and I have just been lounging around the house, playing on Facebook, blog stalking and just being a huge bum!! Friday my husband and I ran a few errands. Tonight we are eating dinner at my parent's to celebrate my dad's birthday. We are supposed to head to a friends house tonight for his birthday too...but we'll see what we feel like.
Now onto some awesome news!!! My mom submitted this beautiful project to the Stampington publishers a while back, and she just got an email that she is going to be published in the January issue of Sew Somerset....the same issue that our friend Jane and her daughter Jeane are going to be published in. They also asked her to submit a separate project for their newest publication,
Art Quilting Studio....that is one of my favorite pubs from them! Anyhow, in January go pick up the issue, it definitely won't disappoint!
