Hi everyone welcome to my blog. I'm back from a wonderful five weeks of being in our beach house from after Christmas until the middle of January and then on the 16th January we went to Queenstown for 10 days in the South Island.
Here's a few photo's from our deck of our beach house so we don't have to walk that far to the beach just across the grass and I can watch the boys on the beach from my kitchen or the deck. There plenty of grass to play cricket, Soccer or just having fun by kicking a ball around. My little slice of piece and quiet and relaxation.
Next week I'll have photo's of Queenstown for you.
Today is Wednesday and that means it's another wonderful Sweet Sketch Wednesday. I'm sorry I having been visiting your blogs for last month but being away and very little access to the Internet it was just easier to have a break and come back refreshed.
Congratulations to our winner and to our top 3 cards I'm really looking forward to commenting on your creations this week.
Sally has created another lovely sketch this week and is really fun to put together.
Sketch #191
Now, on with introducing our new sponsor this week.
We are happy to announce

Kathie,
Welcome back! What a super vacation and I sooooo WANT your beach house! LOL. Your card is just adorable, love the sweet image and fun pear colors that you used. Have a super week. Hugs, Heide
Kathie, love your pairs with those eyes! Your coloring is incredible. The heart die cut is gorgeous behind them and just pops them out being in white. GREAT card again!!! Thanks for sharing the pictures - looks like it was a wonderful trip. We are getting 7-8 inches of snow right now so I'm so jealous. I'm not looking forward to snowblowing and shoveling later today when it stops.
I just came in from shoveling my walk; your summer photos were a breath of fresh air! Loved them as well as the ones on the SSW blog. Your card is amazing! Soo gorgeous and those little eyes are DARLING!
