Hi Ladies, Can you believe it? I am posting again this week. :)I am feeling creative and motivated to make more cards due to all of the wonderful challenges that are offered each week. Very early this morning I finished a card for Repeat Impressions WHAT IF? Wednesday Sketch Challenge. It was very different from any thing I have ever tried and I had a lot of fun making my card.
Here is my card.
Here is what I used.
Most products are from Stampin'UP! Stamp Set: Is Wicked Cool. Card-stock: Basic Black, Old Olive and Cajun Craze. (love this new color). The DP is Wicked Fun Specialty, Ink:is black Staz-On . I also used the Bitty Bat punch, Basic pearls & Black Flourish jewels. All of the circles look 3-D because I used pop dots to to pop them up.
Personal Ramblings.
I know that time is flies by so if you do not have time to read this please just skip it. :) Our weather has been delightful this past week. By that I mean it has been in the 70's a little damp one day but for the most part it has been cool with a wonderful breeze. Not quite like our fall weather but almost. I was able to go for a walk 3 days this week and that certainly lifted my spirits a great deal. Tomorrow I will be able to go walking too. :) As for my family BBQ it will be this Sunday. Unfortunately it will be in the 90's but the sun will be shinning and no rain that day.Yay!I am so excited to see the kids. I will have lots of photos to share with all of you. Speaking of photos I was fortunate enough to get a photo of a damselfly this past Saturday. Due to our summer being so strange I have not been able to get more then one photo of a bubutterfly and now this one damselfly. Hope you like it.
Thanks for stopping by to visit me. I really appreciate it. I hope that all of you have a great rest of the week. Stay safe, stay cool and Smile.:)
Love the wicked sample!

What a great card, Mary! You did such a fabulous job on the sketch! Super papers and cute stamps, and I love the little bat. Thanks so much for playing in the Repeat Impressions challenge - I hope you do it again!
Awesome picture of the damselfly, too. Have a fun party on Sunday!

That was a wicked cool card.
I've never heard of a damselfly before. Is that really a thing or another term for dragonfly?? Beautiful picture of it whatever it's called;)
