I got some very exciting news this morning, it turns out I don’t have to go to work on Friday. Woo hoo!! 🙂 And if all goes well, we’ll get out a little early today! It was not an overly nice day here yesterday, it rained most of the day and it’s supposed to rain again all day today. I’m actually kind of glad that I don’t have to travel anywhere for the holiday seeing as the weather is clearly not going to be great for traveling. If any of you have to go anywhere this week, I hope you have a safe trip!
Today I have my Design Team card for this week’s Paper Craft Crew sketch challenge…
For the base of my card I used a piece of Very Vanilla Card Stock. The background is a piece of Cherry Cobbler that is embossed with the Pretty Print Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. My main image and greeting come from the Santa’s List Stamp Set. The image is stamped in Jet Black Staz-On and the greeting in Cherry Cobbler. A piece of Basic Black is also embossed with the Pretty Print Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and both that and the main image are backed with a piece of Gold Foil Sheet. The three I <3 Santa stamps are from the Very Merry Tags Stamp Set. They are stamped in Cherry Cobbler and punched out with the Petite Curly Label Punch. I really like the image from the stamp set, it has that old news print feel to it and the Gold Foil Sheet just gives the card that extra pop! As always, thanks for stopping by today to see my Design Team card for this week’s Paper Craft Crew sketch challenge. Hop on over to the blog to see what the rest of the Design Team members have come up with and don’t forget to enter your card in the gallery so we can see your take on the sketch! I want to wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving (and a Happy Hanukkah if you’re Jewish!) and I’ll see you back here tomorrow before the big dinner or maybe for dessert! 🙂
