Not only that but I designed some business cards - here's the front and the back. There's definitely a big learning curve I have to plow through but I am learning little bits at a time.
Yesterday, both kids were in bed by 8pm. This has been the third night in a row and I can't tell you how amazing it is to get some cleaning time, a bit of me time, and to be able to go to bed at a reasonable hour. I even was able to get one of my resolutions COMPLETED. (Maybe I'll have to replace it??) All my filing from the past two years have been put away... a daunting feat that I destroyed over the past three evenings.
Here's the Scrapbooksteals Jade 4 layout I created showing the sketch down below. Remember that this ten week series is available every Wednesday and runs until Monday night. This layout might not be completed...I can't decide if its missing a title or not.. "trick or treat" is so much in this layout it might just be fine the way it is. Not sure on that front.

Materials used on this is Fancy Pants Trick or Trick, MME Mischeivious accessory sheet, AC Flair (Spooky), AC Delights (Spells), AC Remarks (Jack o Lantern), SC wooden veneers, MME Sweetest Thing washi tape, and Simple Storie Snap stickers.
In the mean time, I have been checking out the Studio Calico sketches and have completed both their weekly card sketch and challenge sketch. These are released every Sunday and Monday. You have a week to complete them and they must be uploaded to their community gallery. Its a great way to stay inspired. I have been drooling over their DT's work so I couldn't help but try to use up some of my new stash.
For my layout, this is all Studio Calico products with exceptions to the linen thread from Stampin' Up. There's a lo t going on but you'll see more misting on the background paper using a Mr. Huey's mask. This is largely the Take Note collection with wooden veneers, die cut frames, SC accent stickers, Winter Wonderland tiny type letters, AC precision pen, vellum shapes, SC chipboard buttons.
You still have until January 10th to join them!! Also check out the layout and card sketch!
Have a great day!
Cathy

Whoops!! That was pretty clear in the instructions - lol! When I first read the challenge all I thought was "dang, I wish I had that GORGEOUS TH die... that I can't seem to get my hands on". And then I started playing with the punches and had tunnel vision. haha. Thanks!! I'll be playing a lot again - it was super fun!
