I live in the southwest of the United States, and the weather has turned cold again. We have a 'front' moving in. So, when I was pulling out of the driveway to get to work, the thermometer showed 35 degrees. Brrr! Baby it's cold outside. In fact, we haven't turned our heaters off yet. Our wood pellet stove still runs everyday. I always wonder how other folks are doing.
I'm not a fan of cold/cool weather. If it snows, I want to stay home, start a fire, get cozy and craft. Other than that, I want it to be warm, light breeze, and the sun shining. Anything else, I'm pretty miserable.
Deb, over @Sketch Frenzy Friday, has created an absolutely wonderful sketch. But, I really had a time with it. I blame the weather, and my extra hours put in at work. Im sure that you will create something just stunning!
Here is Deb's sketch:
See what I mean? A great sketch! Let's create!
I really enjoyed the process of making this card. I used river rock cardstock as the base. I used Fan Fair DSP for this card. I matted the graph paper in not quite navy cardstock. I used two other patterns from the same package. I used a square punch to create the flag ends. I used the first edition DSP to create the paper blossom. I scrunched them and used a small soda pop top to create the center of the blossom. I punch a super small circle out of the FF DSP and early espresso bakers twine tied in a bow.
I opted to add two stacked embellishments to the lower corner. The ticket was stamped in Not Quite Navy classic ink, and the postage stamp in Soft Suede classic ink. This card is pretty much Clean and Simple, for me.
I hope that you have found some inspiration. I'm sure that we would love to see what you create!
