Love Summer Sketch

It's a celebration at the Freshly Made Sketches blog for their 100th sketch challenge!  They went retro and featured a replay of the very first sketch by Lesley Croghan who started the blog.



I have been wanting to use my "I Heart Summer" paper from Simple Stories, well, all summer!  I decided that I had better get going since there is only a week left in August!  I am so sad to see it coming to an end :(.


We just came back from New Jersey last weekend, and I have some summer thank yous to send out.  One of the patterned papers in this set features a bicycle, which made me think to get out Papertrey Ink's "Pedal Pusher" set.  I loved the heart in the original sketch and so I kept it :)


Some sparkly Stickles and a few blingy enamel dots from the Kathy Davis "Happiness" Collection from GCD Studios.

Congratulations to Freshly Made on their 100th sketch...here's to 100 more!!
