Pink Ink Sketch First Challenge HOP!

OMG!!! I'm so tickled....well... to be pun-like.... PINK!! That you are HERE!!! Woot woot! It's our very FIRST challenge over at the NEW...the FABULOUS....the PINK INK Sketch Challenge Blog! Now....before I start gushing and rambling as I do.... hopefully you've landed here from the CRAZY Talented ANN if not.....hop on over as she is the START and you dont wanna miss any of the Fabulous Pinkness that is this team! Oy Vey!! Let me tell you (Im gonna waffle here a moment....be prepared) when Kellie asked me to join this team... I waivered abit (like seriously 2 whole seconds) thinking Cheri... you have SOOOO much going on right now (stay tuned here...you wont want to miss what's gonna happen around these parts) do you have time...and I of course thought... pppfffffffftttt! OF COURSE you do! You LOVE sketchs and pink and well... I said yes. AND THEN! THEN!! Kellie sent me the link to the blog and I saw the TEAM! Holy Bottles of Exploding Creative Juices... These ladies are all some of my HERO's in the crafting world... and to be included in with the likes of them is... well to say the least... humbling... and honestly...brings a few pink tears to my eyes. So... thank you Kellie for askin and thank you ladies for having me. NOW! .... Im sorry...I've kept you from the FUN long enough! Did you see Jane's AWESOME sketch??? Geesh! How will I ever compete! :) (good thing its not about that huh??)  The challenge is up for a fortnight (that's right you have 2 weeks to get your cards in...for some freakin awesome prizes no less!!!!) Here's my card....

Now....Im also so happy to be previewing one of Tickled Pink's New images out July 13th. AND!!! AND!!! Kellie asked me to design some sentiments to go along with her images! How COOL is that?? I was SO happy to! This is one of mine here... hehe... So...now you're like Smart n Stuff?!  Just seemed so fitting for this young man.

Anyhow...I've kept you here long enough now! Off you go to the next amazing lady Erica!!
Happy Pinkness! Hope to see you in the challenge!
