Card Patterns Sketch 83


Student teaching has kept me super busy and tired. When I get home after a day in the classroom and 2 1/2 hours on the road I have very little energy left, even for cardmaking. But this weekend I decided I had to take some time for myself. I was inspired by the Card Patterns sketch although I used a rectangle shape instead of an oval because I was using the Pixielicous elements. Pixielicious is a very cutesy line, but I tried to tone that down a bit to go with the more elegant font of the rub-on sentiment.

  4. Oh Jess I love this! That big bow looks fabulous and love how you replaced the oval to rectangular shape. So glad to see you play along with us again. 2 1/2 hrs on the road is a long time! Hang in there.
