Well, things didn’t go as planned.  I only got one card made yesterday.  It’s a birthday card for a co-worker whose birthday was this weekend.  I had lost my mojo and I think it’s because I have been still using my summer colored papers.  When I was digging in my stash and came across these, I started getting it back!  This sketch was from last weeks 2sketches for you #36.  I am very happy with the way this card turned out.   Thanks for looking.

Supplies:  cs was from a pack that was in my stash…came from Michael’s.  Image is $1.00 set from studio g, pp was in the stash and it’s from We R memory makers- country flowers, twine from Papertrey Ink, button was in my stash, ink is Colorbox petal point alchemy.  I used my 1 3/4 circle punch and 2 5/16 scallop punch.
