It's time for a new challenge at
Freshly Made Sketches and this week I am the hostess - always a nerve-wracking experience. I think I've created a sketch that gives you some leeway with your design. My design was inspired by all those sponged backgrounds that I see by my fellow card-makers that are so beautiful.
I've had this Halloween stamp set for ages. I got it at TJ Maxx and I think it cost me all of three bucks. There's a bunch of fun images in it and I chose these little robbers since I was set on sponging a background which created a spotlight on them. There's a Halloween challenge at
The Paper Players too so my little thieves will find themselves there as well!
We've got a new blog look at

Bad boys bad boys....whatcha gonna do when they come for you.....you are a master with those brushes! Love how they are in the spotlight! Totally fun card!
Such a clever card! Love the spotlight on the jailbirds and I love your sponging work.
This is such a great card Jen! I love your "jailbirds"!!!! So fun and perfect for Halloween! Thanks for a great sketch this week!!!
This card just makes me smile - it totally looks like your birds are on the run from jail and have been caught in the guard tower's spotlight and they're all saying "oops" or a stronger version of that :)
And I've just read Linda's comment and now have that song in my head!
Jen, this is hilarious! Love your little robbers! Looks like they got caught with that bright light on them! Your background is fabulous! Thank you very much for joining my Halloween challenge at The Paper Players this week! XX
Just love the 3 robber birds on your card. The bright (green?) is perfect to highlight these little birds :)
