Laughing Lola Hold the Milk!

Hi everyone!  I hope you are having a fantastic week so far.  Well, I guess it has only been Monday, but I have some craftiness to share today (go figure, lol) so let's do it!

How many of you use sketches to get started on a card or scrapbook page?  I haven't even known about them for long, but ever since I discovered these lovely little project "maps," I have found lots of different ways of using products that I would not have thought of before.  Here is my latest sketch inspired creation!


 and the sketch...


I am linking up with Peachy Keen Stamps Sketch Challenge today as well as the Color My Heart Color Dare!

I actually do feel sorry for this adorable little neglected glass of milk now!  ;)  I cut this glass of milk on Sky and White Daisy CS on my Expression 2 with the Simply Charmed Cricut Cartridge from Provocraft.  I used two of my Peachy Keen face sets, Basic Paper Doll Faces and Funshine Face Parts, to give it the saddest little look of surprise.  Do you like your Oreos with milk?


Personally, I'll take sparkle over milk any day!   ;)  Doesn't the plaid B&T Duo from the Laughing Lola Paper Packet look like a tablecloth?  I thought so!

I LOVE the August Stamp of the Month from Close to My Heart!!!  It is called A Chocolate Affair, and oh my does it have adorable chocolate images!  Check it out!


Did I forget to mention it is yours completely FREE with every $50 purchase from my website this month?  IT IS!!!  :)  Just fill your cart with your wishlist, and it will prompt you to add your free stamp of the month!   These cookies are pretty scrumptious looking!  The sparkly silver shimmer trim makes me drool even more...lol.


The versatile set even pairs some yummy images with sweet sentiments...


It was super-simple to add a little pizzaz to the inside of the card too!  


One word of caution...these stamps are prone to causing late night munching!  Mmmmmm, chocolate!  :)

      You have no idea how hard it was to keep out of the Oreos while making it! ;) Thanks, Cindy!
