Thinking of You

Just a quick post today.  I've decided to take a break and do a Sunday marathon of Downton Abbey.  But, I wanted to share this card I made to send to one of my sons.  I try to get cards made and sent to all of my kids and grandkids.  Now that they all live out west it's even more important to me to send those cards.


Stamps Sets:  Gorgeous Grunge, Hardwood, Sheltering Tree (sentiment), Sprinkles of Life; Inks:  Chocolate Chip, Cucumber Crush, Early Espresso, Real Red, Soft Suede; Cardstock:  Soft Suede, Very Vanilla; Other:  Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies, Tree Builder Punch

The sketch I used is from the CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge.  For all the challenge details and to share your project, click the image below.

  1. Such a great masculine card - I always struggle with these! I love the use of the wood panel on the circle and the spatters on the background. Thanks for sharing with us this week at CC&S!
