yellow gingham

I was floored yesterday to see that Libby though my Pile it On card was her favorite!!! I was so excited that I had to play along with From Courtney's Closet #48, which was actually Courtney's playdate. It's a bright cheery card just like the bright cheery day we had yesterday, and are having today!

In honor of Maria I knew I needed to include some gingham on my card. Yellow was the only color I could find in my stash which went with the beautiful colors in her daughters dress. I also copied Maria's ribbon a bit from the card she made, adding a button beneath the bow. What do you think?

Be sure to check back tomorrow morning for another Unscripted Sketch!

Paper: Whisper White, Barely Banana, Green Galore, Tempting Turquoise, 2 unknown pinks
Ink: Green Galore, Tempting Turquoise, Apricot Appeal, Real Red (stamped off twice)

Other: ribbon, button, pop up glue dots, Martha Steward border punch

  3. Cute, Cute, Cute! I love the yellow gingham and the pink button under it. I am glad to hear the weather is getting better. I am headed up North on Sunday to catch big fish. I have two cards I haven't posted but I think I'll save that for when I don't want to fish.
    I loved the links more great places to visit.

  4. I forgot to tell you, your flowers are in the mail. I took them into the post office so the postman could hand stamp them. Anything bulky they send back to me. I hope you like them.

  12. I love the big yellow gingham ribbon tied with the button center. Such a cute idea. And your lacy border is a perfect compliment to the feel of the card.
