2 Sketches 4 You - Sketch 18

Morning Folks and what a beautiful morning it is too...cold, frosty but most important of all bright....and today is a very special day ...the first day of the new presidency of Barak Obama....a momentous day for the whole world...not just the American people.
As I watched his Inauguration Speech....I was truly moved by the occasion..he is a skilful orator and communicates brilliantly with his audience...a humble unassuming man who cares about all the citizens of the USA regardless of creed or colour....he has a big mountain to climb but he brings hope to us all for peace and stability in the world. I wish him and all our buddies in the USA good wishes and here's to better times.
The sketch this week on 2 Sketches 4 You is from Kazan and what a fab sketch....great cards as always from Kazan and the Design Team.....they are such a brilliant source of inspiration.
I think I have turned the corner this week...my old enthusiasm has returned and I am back to enjoying what I do.....probably because I have lots of deadlines and I always think I work better under pressure...give me lots of time and I never seem to get out of the bit....and do you know what....the bulbs are peeking through in the garden.......a sign that Spring is on it's way.
