Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2- August 2025 Sketches 308 and 309

 Hi there, crafty friends and welcome to Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2!  I'm Kelly and will be your hostess for this month.  I am lucky enough to live in Southern Alberta, Canada, and it's been a rainy but fantastic summer!  Everything is lush and green, and it's been great.  

I am currently in Northern Idaho on vacation so here are a couple photos from on the water on Lake Pend Orielle but we're actually on the river side-Sandpoint, Idaho.

 

 Thank you for joining us for the July challenge. Be sure to check back mid-August to see if you were a winner.  

 

We have two fabulous sketches for you this month from Kathie, as well as our throwback sketch and a wonderful guest designer this month.
