Hello everyone! TodayI have a few things that I'd like to share. First, is a card that I created with this week's Mojo Monday Sketch:
I finally used some of the Making Memories Chloe's Closet collection from my stash. Everything on this card except for the cardstock, flowers, and die cut glittered swirls are from that line. It's such a lovely collection, and I liked it so much I used it for the next project which is my take on Laura's sketch this week from 2 Sketches 4 You:
Finally, I'd like to share a project that my oldest daughter created. It's another t-shirt that she has designed for C28 Canvas. Some of you may recall that she submitted another design a few months back. Go here to see it. Well, I am so happy to share that it was one of the winning designs during that time period and it will be printed and sold through C28.com very soon (I believe it should be a matter of weeks when it will be released!). We're so excited about that!
In the meantime, she has just designed these:
Well, if you could give her your support by voting for her designs (a "5" is the highest score and "1" is the lowest), we would really appreciate it! Just visit her pages here:
You can vote once a day, and you will have to register on the site in order to vote. However, comments left are really important in the overall decision to print the design.
If you leave a comment here and let me know that you've voted and commented on her t-shirts, I will add your name to the drawing for these RAK's in gratitude for your support:
This RAK includes:
- 3 sheets of 12x12 Bazzill cardstock - 1 sheet is a die cut scalloped square
- 5 specialty papers from the Making Memories Sabrina collection
- Six journaling pages from the MM Sabrina collection
- Pink Paislee alphabet stickers
- Tube of pink brads from Marcella by K
- Pink gel pen
- Four lengths of coordinating ribbons
- An assortment of coordinating Prima flowers (not shown in photo)
RAK #2 includes:
- 6 sheets of 12x12 Bazzill cardstock
- 6 specialty papers from the Basic Grey Granola collection
- Coffee House Glimmer Mist
- Pink Paislee rub ons
- Metallic mini alphabet stickers
- A package of coordinating ribbons
- A length of brown mesh ribbon
- An assortment of coordinating Prima flowers
If you post about her design on your blog with a link to her design and the voting information, I'll add five additional entries for you in the drawing! Then, you'll have six entries total. For example, you'll get one entry for voting and five extra entries for blogging about it and adding a link to your blog to her voting page.
Usually the voting period is three weeks. However, voting on her previous design was cut short...perhaps because of your overwhelming support for her then with all of the comments that were left. We're still not certain why that happened. Also, you can log in and place a vote once a day. So, if you could vote soon and as often as possible, it would be wonderful! ;-D
You'll have until next Monday, March 16th, to post a comment with a link to your blog post about this or a comment letting me know that you've voted! Our daughter will have the honor of picking two winning names on the following Tuesday, March 17th.
Thanks so much in advance for your support and encouragement! May you all be blessed with a wonderful week! :-D
Wow! Talent must run in your family! Your daughter is very talented and I was happy to cast my vote for her! Best of luck!

it is truly refreshing to see a youth today be so inspired by her faith and beliefs and then to transfer that to a talent she obviously has....the shirts are absolutely gorgeous...I voted for both and commented on both. Great job, mom, on raising her to share her talent and faith!!!
