Here's the sketch I worked from:

Card Patterns Sketch 108 Challenge

It seems like forever since I've participated in a challenge. I guess I've just been busy!

I used my Nestabilities to create my flower using patterned paper from TPC Studio called Grandma's Attic Embroidery.

I love this ribbon! I purchased it on my recent visit to Archiver's at the Mall of America. Now I wish I had bought more. Thankfully I'm heading back real soon so I can stock up on it.

Here's the sketch I worked from:

Card Patterns Sketch 69

I've been concentrating more on scrapbooking lately and I've missed participating in card challenges. When I saw this sketch from Card Patterns, I knew I wanted to create a card. This is the first time I've used my new stamps from the Tim Holtz Collection called Good Thoughts. I think they may become a favorite!

I'm pretty happy with how this card turned out. I like how colorful it is.
