Freshly Made Sketches 170

Woo hoo!! It’s Friday my friends! The best part about this Friday is that I’m off from work for a whole week and will be heading to Florida on Sunday! Wee! I can’t wait to be in the warmer weather and see all of my friends! Yesterday wasn’t too bad here, it was sunny for most of the day and not too cold. Dinner last night for my Brother was made even more fun by little Daniel! He tried his first lemon! I had to share the video because his face is just great…

The best part is that even though he makes the lemon face he just keeps on eating it! He is just the cutest! Tonight I have a class at Scrap-A-Latte, that should be great fun! Looking forward to making some neat cards! I’m going to try and go see my friend Shane after the class since I will be out that way. Looks to be a very good Friday indeed! 🙂

My little time spent in the Stampin’ Galley last night yielded today’s card which is for this week’s Freshly Made Sketches challenge…

Freshly Made Sketches 170

I have these dies from Simon Says Stamp that I have been dying to use and I thought this layout would work perfectly! The card base for today is Very Vanilla Card Stock and my background is a piece of paper from the Adventure Bound Designer Series Paper Stack. Across the lower middle of the card is a piece of Gold Metallic Card Stock adhered with some 2-Way Glue. I used some Early Espresso and Cherry Cobbler to cut out the Sketch Heart from Simon and inlaid the two together and adhered them to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The Sending is also a Simon die and is cut from Whisper White and heat embossed with Ranger Gold Tinsel Embossing Powder. Some more 2-Way Glue adheres it to the heart and completes the card. I love the heart and that embossing powder is just so nice and sparkly! I hope that you enjoyed my card for this week’s Freshly Made Sketches challenge. Thank you very much for coming by today! I hope that you all have an absolutely fantastic Friday! 🙂
