Sweet Sketch Wednesday 180 and Sassy Cheryl's

I have had another really fun week.  Judi and her husband have been here visiting this week.  We really had a great time together and I was able to take a day off from work and show them around.  The only bad thing was they brought bad weather with them.  It really turned cold for a couple of days.  It was sad because the weather has been beautiful  here.

Cheryl's Bio

Hi everyone! Sassy Cheryl here and I’m so happy to be sponsoring the Sweet Sketch Wednesday challenge this week.

I have been creating graphics and have licensed my work to companies such as Kohl's, Hobby Lobby and Shopko, among others, for over eight years. I started creating digital images about twelve years ago. I absolutely LOVE to draw and always carry a small sketchbook for those times when a bit of inspiration hits. It's been a lifelong dream to become a working artist, and besides deadlines, I LOVE everything about what I do! It really helps that I have a very supportive husband and son (they also can be my biggest critics!)

Through the digis I create, I’ve met so many wonderful, talented ladies. The projects they make using my images makes it all worth it. ‘Can’t wait to see what you will create with my Sassy images.
