Feeding the Birds! - 6/15

It's time for another LGS Sketch!! This one kinda stumped me for a while. I couldn't wrap my mind around all the embellishments on this sketch. There was way to much going on for me. I finally just simplified it to my style.

You & Me Card - 1/15

I have a challenge up at the Turtle today! It's a scraplift challenge. Instead of scraplifting from the gallery, I decided to scraplift from my Pinterest boards. There is tons of inspiration out there, and it is always helpful when we hit a stumbling block.

I used some of my old Hip Kit club kits.
