BingoLady: thanks for the sketches. I can always count on you designing your own sketches. I will make sure to bug your sisters-in-law if I have any questions  I think I was posting as you were posting your cards. Great set of sample cards though. My mom would love the tea pieces on the first card. They're so cute! The bold "LOVE" and "ANNIVERSARY" sentiments are a wonderful color contrast to the mostly white... I really like that. Great colors on the third card... very pretty paisley papers. Wonderful job on the embossing on all 3 cards Edited by user Tuesday, April 03, 2012 8:23:39 PM(UTC)

BingoLady, thanks for hosting! Sorry I haven't been around much! We went on vacation last week, and then I got sick! Your sample cards turned out nice! The tea party card looks like a lot of fun! The second sketch reminds me of a wedding cake having the letters all stacked up like that! It made a wonderful Anniversary card! Great use of paisley paper on your third card too!

Well, I just realized that it's Easter THIS Sunday!
This would probably explain the absence of so many people

Thank you BingoLady for the sketches and Dee for the colours! Unfortunately I won’t have much time to play as I’m heading out on a four day vacation for Easter. BingoLady – Great cards based on the sketches. You really do such a good job with the embossing! Sandy – Hope you’re feeling better! Twiddlebug – I like your interpretation of all the sketches. Great choice of paper and images! Cstanzione – lovely Mother’s Day card! It works perfectly with this week’s sketch! RAQ – Wonderful card in the ad colours! Your flower turned out really well! Have a great time crafting everyone! Happy Easter! I’ll touch base next week! Gisele attached the following image(s):

Dee, thanks for posting the ad colors! TwiddleBug, I think your tea kettle card is my favorite! It's just so cute! They all are great though! Cstanzione, I think that sketch 3 had your name all over it, lol! I just love how your card turned out! Love that ribbon and glittery swirly flourishes, and I just adore that polka dot paper! Raquel, you nailed the ad colors perfectly! Such a happy, cheerful, friendly card! Great job on the flower too! Gisele, lovely teapot and tea cups card! So very soft and tranquil feel to it! This is a bit of a stretch, but this is my take on sketch 3, lol! SandyPalmer attached the following image(s):

SandyPalmer: LoL! I saw that image and wanted to downloaded it to use for some future card. Love the color combination on this one and all the fancy border punch and cuts. The pearls are a great touch... love it!

Dee thanks for the add colors. Twiddlebug- Cute tea pot card love it nice xmas and bd card. RAQ Love that hello card and the flower is georgous. I guess asian themes are in this year I'm starting to see a lot of 1.00 stamps at Joannnes with the asian theme on it. Gisele- very pretty tea set love it. Sandy- what can I say you went over the top on this one love everything about it. Here are some teapot themes I did keeping with my silhoutte theme. And this is another card I did last week for fun which by coincidence just happens to be in the add colors minus the yellow doesn't follow andy sketch just happens to be add colors.
