Thank You


Happy Monday!  The weekend went a bit too fast for me, but I did see two different movies this weekend.  Les Mis which was fabulous and Parental Guidance which was very sweet.  If you're looking for a movie to take your kids too, I'd recommend Rise of the Guardians over Parental Guidance, but they are both good movies.

Now onto my card.  I love Retro Sketches. Seriously love them.  And this week was no exception.  This card came together really quickly.  I have a basket with miscellaneous embellishments right above my work surface.  Everything but the patterned paper was in there so it came together very quickly.  Love when that happens and you're happy with the end result!

PS If you're interested, I've update my sale page!

you rocked this one! I have to laugh that it didn't take you very long...it took me over an hour and I changed up several things on the card! LOL Your sale is going well! Maybe the creative juices would flow better with a sale of my own :) Hope this week starts out well :)

Pure CAS perfection, Lynn! Delish! And I haven't seen Parental Guidance yet, but from the previews, I'm really not sure that I want to. Ezekiel is still talking about Rise of the Guardians! Have a blessed week!

Lynn, could you come work some of your magic with my basket of embellishments? They don't get nearly enough love, yet they keep multiplying! LOL
I seriously love the burlap texture with the wood banner. This is one of those special cards that is a feast for the eyes and the hands. :)
