I’ve had the best time creating this card for the Freshly Made Sketches challenge albeit it took me a awhile. As soon as I saw the sketch, I had the idea of birthday presents. The idea came fast but the execution…not so much. But like I said, it was fun! HERE’s the sketch…
I’m also playing along with a new to me challenge, AAA Birthday. They are asking for cute birthday cards this month.
I have the most fun creating when I can reach into my stash and coordinate lots of different elements from various companies. It’s really satisfying to create with products that I haven’t used in a while. And this card is a culmination of quite a few of those products. I’ll list everything below.
And a peek inside…
Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Take care,
Rosanne
