Here is my Card again!
Do you ever buy something that you really like and then you set it aside?
I did that with this DSP stack…This DSP has real photos (like the bottom balloons)
and it has printed paper (like the confetti look). I fell in love when I saw it in the
Catalog, I HAD to have it…then I put it in the 6″ X 6″ storage container and I forgot
all about it! When I saw this Sketch Challenge, right away I wanted to do balloons.
I was trying to decide the background and I pulled the container down and flipped
through all the sheet of DSP, and these 2 patterns were my decision for the Card!
I wouldn’t describe it as hoarding, because I will use it, and then try to use it all up!
I don’t know…maybe getting the fever for the New Catalog Peek I will be able to
peruse tomorrow! Trying to use up my stash before I order the NEW Stuff!
We shall see how restrained I will be…I do have to say, I did good restraining on the
Occasions Catalog…I resisted quite a bit! Maybe I was saving for the New Catalog!!!
We shall see!
Until the next Post…Blessings and Party Feelings to you ALL!
This one is great, too! 💖
I definitely need to step up my game on the inside of the cards and the envelopes as well.
Very fun take on the sketch!
