What a wonderful week!  The drive in to work was pretty stress free due to Spring Break and last night we had a family and friends gathering to celebrate my nephews 40th birthday!!!!  WOW!  We had a great time!  I know Sunday is St. Patrick's day and I should have done something with a Shamrock but I really wanted to use my Easter single stamp.  I also made a new watermark with My Digital Studio for the copyright info for my cards.  It was soooooo easy!

Here's the sketch:

Happy February!  I hope all my friends in the North (which is anything North of Texas of course!) are staying nice and warm!  We have had very different weather this week, in the 70's for a couple of days and now in the 40's and 50's!  Go figure.  On to this week's challenge! 

Last month's sketches were brought to us by Elizabeth Harris and for February and March they will be brought to us by Tammy Fite.  Be sure to visit the Utah Divas International Blog to see all of the Designer's creations this week:




And here's my card!



This was created in My Digital Studio.   I love creating in MDS!  Isn't it cool how the Early Espresso hearts have a "see through" little heart that shows the Pretty in Pink Background through?  And how cool it is that even though the background is Chocolate Chip, the sentiment can be written in Pretty in Pink and show up perfectly!

Have a great week and stay warm (or cool) wherever you are!
