Oh how I love Midnight Madness time! (That's late Monday night, or Tuesday morning if you haven't noticed my posts by now.) I think I said I love MM release last week too, but I can't help myself, it's so darn exciting. Ha ha! I got to use a digi-stamp from our monthly sponsor, Sunshine and Giggles, on my card for this week.
"YOUR CHOICE"
Just have fun and come play with us :)
The best way to get a jump start on these challenges is to check out the SNEAK PEAK. :) Next week's sketch is posted on the blog. Too cool don't ya think?

You wouldn't guess that Tattered Rose Stickles would make the perfect sand castle, but that's what I used here. Pretty neat, huh? They are Distress Stickles so they are muted, but still sparkly like sand.
Take care and have a wonderful week!

Then I did a fun little lollipop flower/sunshine with a glitter paper layer for a cool twist.
Thought I would share a photo of my little cuties playin' in the sand. This first one is my big girl Tessa (all of three and a half years old).
And this is the one I caught of Izzy (just turned two). That girl is a hard one to photo!
Lots of summer fun was had that day including throwing water balloons! I think I almost had more fun than they did. :) Anyhow, I really hope you try out the sketch this week. Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to pop over to our weekly sponsor, Gurlee Girl. (Stinkin adorable stamps there!)
Take care and have a wonderful week!
