Hello shabby friends and welcome to another fun week of inspiration and creativity here in the Tea Room!  This week Lesley is our creative host and she has chosen the theme of 'Sketch This' along with this beautiful graphic for inspiration.  Lesley asks that you create a card or project inspired by the layout of the sketch provided!

Thanks for your understanding and participation!

I am pleased to introduce you all to this week's Guest Designer, Karen Davis!  Karen earned this Guest Designer spot for her win in the Tea Room during the Week #183 challenge - 'Time Flies'.
