 Sisters Sweet as Candy


             I have to tell you I have the sweetest sisters around. They mean so much to me and we have such a close relationship. I really enjoyed spending last week with them. I cherish our special times together. They are as sweet as candy!!!



          This week at Sweet Sketch Wednesday we have another fun sponsor. Our sponsor is The Stamping Boutique. Tracy has some adorable images to do your cards with. I hope you will run and check out her store. She is offering a prize of three free digis so you will want to make sure you play along.

          Don't you just love this image of a candy store? I have always loved looking at candy in those fun glass jars. It's always so much fun picking out which one to buy. They always look so yummy. This image is just so sweet I had to pick this one.


          I added crystal effects to the jars to add that extra special touch...to make them look like real glass jars. If you could see my card face to face you would be able to tell that I achieved that look. I also added crystal effects to the apple and pepperment candies.

         Thanks so much for all you sweet comments and all your concern for me and my sisters this past week. Hope you have a day filled with sweetness.

  7. Arlana, I love your background - it is so vivid with color and makes me feel so cheery! ;D Your card is gorgeous - love the colors. You're right, you can see what the crystal effects did on the jars. I'll have to try that - really clever! I have to be honest - I envy your relationships with your sisters. That's the one thing I loved seeing when I read each one's blog - I'm a family person but my family is different *smile* So I thrive on other people's family love! It's GREAT! You ladies really make me smile!

  8. Arlana, Wow, thank you for your sweet blog. But you have to know that the feeling is mutual. You've always done so much for us and anyone you meet! It was great to be together this past week...just wish it had been under different circumstances.

    Arlana, I knew you would have this one put together is an hour inspite of all the activity at your house. Wow, I love the crystal effects on the candy jars and apples. You always think of everything! Your colors are fantastic too! Thanks again for everything!
