I was so excited to be asked to do the Sunday Sketch over at the Studio Calico Blog and I had a lot of fun working with the sketch.  I only wish I could have come and blogged about it sooner (I had computer issues and working too much issues), but better late than never.  If you’re not familiar with the SC Sunday Sketch, it’s a sketch challenge that gives you a chance to win a Gift Certificate from the shop.  The sketches are always really inspiring and you still have time to get your submission in for this sketch, so check out the blog link above if you want to play along.

Here’s what I came up with for the sketch:

Taxis Galore
My interpretation of the Sunday Sketch
I used my Studio Calico Sock Hop kit (November) and the Poodle Skirt and Penny Loafers add ons.  I don’t think anything makes me happier than the yellow, red, and turquoise colour scheme in this layout!  I just love these colours together!

Mercy Tiara

Mercy Tiara

You may be wondering who is Mercy Tiara, and why the name? MercyTiara is an anagram of my first and middle names, Tracy Marie. I discovered this name in the 90's in grad school when we were all coming up with alter egos for one another in a lab one day. I've used it ever since, but you can call me Tracy or MercyTiara, or anything you want... just don't call me late for supper!
