Sweet Sunday Sketch #300 - Farewell!!!

Happy Sunday! It's time for another Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge! All the details are over on the Sweet Sunday Sketch blog. I do hope you'll join us!

I've been sitting in front of my computer for hours trying to figure out what to write for this post... I've been a member of the Sweet Sunday Stampers since the 20th September, 2009!! My goodness.... 6yrs!!!! This could get a little soppy, so please, bear with me!

I have truly LOVED every moment and each and every week of hanging out with the GORGEOUS and AMAZING bunch of ladies that have made up the Sweet Sunday Stamper team of the years...and to this day have always pinched myself and wondered why and how I was so lucky to stamp alongside such DIVINE and TALENTED ladies.,... I mean seriously, have you seen their cards!!! After nearly 7 years, our gorgeous leader, Karen, whom I am honoured and delighted to call one of my dearest friends has decided that the Sweet Sunday Sketch has come to an end.... SNIFF!!!! As I'm sure you're all aware, sometimes LIFE just takes over... and I can also say, that over the past year or so.. LIFE has definitely gotten in the way of my stampin' time! 

My style has changed oh so much since my first Sweet Sunday Sketch entry... HERE!! and my first Sweet Sunday Stamper entry HERE!!! Goodness.. HUGE changes! The ladies, the camaraderie and let's not forget a team of stampin' ladies where THREE of us have the SAME birthday.. YUP the exact same day!!!! Seriously.. where does that happen!!! have been absolutely AMAZING... Even the constant debates on whether WONKY panels on cards were actually allowable on any of the sketches!!... (VICKI!!!) hahaha... actually... I think, Vicki may have even turned my opinion of them... a little! 
 I feel like I've known these gorgeous gals for ever, even though I've only ever been lucky enough to meet one of them in real life... a moment I still hold dear to my heart! I hope that one day in the future, I'll get to meet the rest of them.... it's such a shame AUstralia is SOOOOO far away!!!

We've had a ball an I'm sure each and everyone of us has gone all out on today's sketch!... Soooo... here is mine...

And the FINAL sketch for you to play along with:-

 I do hope you'll all jump on board and play along on this very last Sweet Sunday Sketch!!! I'm quietly hoping, we might be able to have a little Sweet Sunday Sketch Reunion down the track!!! That would be fun!!

Thanks for stopping by.

Sweet Sunday Sketch #148

Happy Sunday!!! I hope you're all ready for the Christmas festivities!!. This is our last Sweet Sunday Sketch for the year, while the Sweet Sunday Stampers and of course our fearless leader Karen take a little break. Don't worry though, we'll be BACK on January 1st with a new sketch to play along with.

Here is my card for today:-

And here is the sketch for you to play along with:-

I've used Concord Crush and my main colour today... not sure what came over me.. hahaha and some of the gorgeous Cheerful Treat (Hostess) DSP.
I thought I'd use my very underused Hello Blossom stamp today also. It's such a versatile stamp, I really must use it more!!.

To finish it off I added some buttons and  some ribbon and a little Happy Birthday sentiment.

I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas and a safe and Happy New year. Thankyou so very much for all of your lovely comments this year, I love hearing from you all. My new years resolution is to attempt to post much more regularly!!.
