Tuesday Morning Sketch # 165
{IF YOU ARE HERE FOR THE LIL' INKER NEW RELEASE BLOG HOP, PLEASE SCROLL DOWN}
It's that time again sketch fans! This week's Tuesday Morning Sketch is brought to you by the talented Theresa Winslow.

It's a fun one, right? And we've got a great sponsor this week, and one of my personal favorites... There She Goes! Not only does Jessica at TSG have some of my favorite stamp artists (Torico and Melyssa Connolly), she has AWESOME customer service too!
I inked up my Jungle Out There set for my card today... I love this silly monkey, and it comes with lots of those punny sentiments that I can't get enough of! I popped up the main panel with foam adhesive, after cutting out a window from my Spellbinders Ovals. The cloud print in the background is a digital paper called Happy Rain from JazzyPatterns on Etsy.

Today I am sharing the new Sugar Kissed Cottage set, Best Witches. It comes with this sweet little trick-or-treating witch, and five fun sentiments. I paired her with some cute Halloween papers from K&Co, and created a little cloudy backdrop for her using the Lil' Inker Cloud Dies, and a combination of Versamagic Purple Hydrangea ink, and Dusty Concord Distress ink. The moon is from the 2 Cute Ghostie Witch set that I featured yesterday.

I created a simple night sky scene for her to fly through using the Lil' Inker Cloud Dies and my Spellbinders Circles.

Tuesday Morning Sketch #164
It's time for a new sketch at the Tuesday Morning Sketches Blog! Are you ready?

Don't you love Melissa's sketches? This is another one that I intend to use over and over again!
This week we are sponsored by Guylou's Inimitability... so be sure to link up your project using this sketch for a chance to win!
Here's a little inspiration before I send you on your way... I used a stamp from The Angel Company set called Skinny Birds. This mug is the single most used stamp in my collection! I love it! Funny thing is, of all the times I've used it, I don't think I've ever colored it... I always want to paper piece it! The sentiment is from Stamping Bella Perk Me Up Peeps, that I picked up from Loves Rubberstamps. With a little Starbucks gift card tucked inside, I think this card would perk up any coffee lover! :)
Supplies: TAC Skinny Birds; SB Perk Me Up Peeps; Palette Noir Ink; Versamagic Jumbo Java Ink;
Neenah Desert Storm CS; Bazzill Chocolate Cream CS; Hammermill White CS; PP Scraps;
Ribbon; Spellbinders Ovals and Scalloped Ovals Nestabilities Dies
That's it from me! Be sure to visit the Tuesday Morning Sketches Blog to see the entire Design Team line up, and leave a little love while your there!
I hope you will join us this week!

CASEing Debby
Laura surprised everyone with an impromptu challenge over at the Lil' Inker Blog! And it's a good one... CASE this card by the lovely and talented Debby Hughes:

I love Debby's clean and simple style! At first, I hesitated to join the challenge, because I do not have all the same products she used on her card. But, they don't have to be identical, right? So I made do with what I have!

Supplies: Lil' Inker Rainbows and Clouds Dies; Lil' Inker Large Sunshine Die; Circle Nestabilities;
CC Designs/AmyR Be Happy Sentiments; Palette Noir Ink; Bazzill Ocean Breeze CS;
Echo Park Dots and Stripes Soda Fountain 6x6; Hammermill White CS
So lets talk PRIZES! If you link up your new creation for this challenge before Sunday 9/23 at 11:59pm EST, you'll be entered to win one of TWO prize packages!
Prize #1 - $10 credit to the Lil' Inker Store
Prize #2 - 2 stamp sets from either of the illustrated lines (2 Cute Ink and Sugar Kissed Cottage)
I hope you'll play along!
