boho-friendship.jpg  Good Morning!  What a challenging day this has proved to be already and it’s only slightly past 7am!  First, I slept like a rock last night (something I rarely do), so getting up was a task.  Getting my boys moving seemed to be just slightly easier until my 15 yr old came to me with a wrecked knee.   He hurt it in gym yesterday and didn’t tell anyone.   I’m always like “what test are you suppose to be taking today?”  LOL.. I just know my kids.. they will do/say whatever it takes to get a break.   That puts a bit of a kink in my plans for this morning, too… as now I’ll need to run him to the doc to make sure he hasn’t done any real damage.  Kids, gotta love them!

I got a look at Jen’s Limited Supply Challenge for this morning and went “Whaaaaaat?”  This was quite challenging, too.  Not so bad on the limitations, but which flower to pick! :)   If you’re like me, you have a zillion flower images.   I chose My Favorite Things’ Boho Blossoms.   I think I pulled colors from a card I’d seen on SCS… can’t remember, but the combo has been in my head for awhile, so I went with it.  I did limit my layers and kept the embellishments to a minimum.

This is also going to serve as this week’s sketch challenge!  It will be THSC6.

Here’s the deets on mine:

Stamps:  My Favorite Things’ Boho Blossoms (www.mftstamps.com)

Colors: Basic Gray, Regal Rose, GP White

Ink: Regal Rose, Brilliance Graphite Black

Accessories: brads, ribbon, dimensionals, small scallop punch, word window punch, large oval punch

 Oh, on a final note, I had a personal challenge to do all the SCS challenges for the month of February… well, this is the final one!  I did it!   Sadly though, I will be taking a few days off from challenges starting early next week as I have a ton of design team stamping to do.  Good news is,  My Favorite Things’ March releases come out on the 5th, so there will be lots of time to stamp after that!

TFL!~ and have a blessed day!

What a beauty! Great sketch too and I plan to use that sometime this week!

I will miss seeing your cards in the challenge galleries in the next few days or so, but will look forward to seeing your new DT stuff.

Sorry about DS’s knee - hope all goes well with that. Have a great weekend, my friend!
