My winter break is coming to a close waaaaaayyyyy to quickly. Unfortunately, my break wasn’t as planned, as I had several medical issues that kept me from “wasting time away” in my craft room. But I’m pleased to say that I managed to have fun today getting the cards completed for next week’s Cards, Etc. Workshop. If you are interested in attending the workshop, just go here to check out the details.
Before I began making these cards, I knew that I wanted to shoot two birds with one stone. Get the cards created and to enter some challenges…since I haven’t done that in quite a while.
This “So Thankful…” card is based on sketch SSS191 from The Sweet Stop and the color combination CTD223 at The Color Throwdown.

I love CAS (Clean and Simple) cards, but I always struggle with them a little, as I always feel like I need to add just a little more. However, with the higher complexity of the other two projects, I knew I wanted to have a card that was just a little easier to complete.
This “Smitten” card is based on sketch #44 at RetroSketches, while the color combo is last week’s color combo at ColourQ, #169.
I’ll post the third card tomorrow.
Until next time….






Beautiful cards! I especially love your addition of buttons to the tree on the first one and that wide striped May Arts ribbon. I love that stuff (and I need to order more). Thanks for joining us at the CTD!
