Freshly Made Sketches #94 & Sneak Peek

Hello and welcome to Thursday! Just one more day to go until Friday! Work is just crazy busy and so are most other aspects of life lately but that’s ok. When work is busy the day flies by, I would like it if the nights went a bit slower! It finally rained a little here yesterday and this morning doesn’t look very promising. We had a good run! I have a block party to go to on Saturday so hopefully it will be a good day weather wise.

Today’s card – Freshly Made Sketches #94, a sketch from Linda S….

Super clean and simple! And I think this will complete my use of the Thinlits and Pretty Print Embossing Folder for a bit! LOL! I have been a little obsessed with them both lately! The base of my card is Cajun Craze Card Stock. The background is a piece of Very Vanilla that I embossed with the Pretty Print Textured Impressions Embossing Folder*. For the greeting I used the “thankful” Expressions Thinlits Die*, now I have shown you all three of them! I backed it with a piece of Brushed Gold Card Stock that is adhered with Stampin’ Dimensionals. A very simple card that would be a great way to showcase the two new products from the 2013 Holiday Catalog at a workshop. This is also one of the rare cards that has no stamping on it. That never happens! Thank you for coming by to see my Freshly Made Sketches card for this week’s challenge. I hope that you have a good Thursday and I’ll see you tomorrow for my Create with Connie and Mary card! Enjoy your day! 🙂
