Color Throwdown and Freshly Made Sketches

I needed a 'feel better' card for a sweet friend and couldn't help but use the Freshly Made Sketch #670 and colors from Color Throwdown #825.  

I think her pink 'do' will give my friend a smile:


A plaid stencil set and scalloped die from PTI allowed me to create a custom-colored cardstock for the base panel and a pretty Large Scallops die from The Greetery gave a little extra pretty for the landscape panel... it might be nice of me to show you Amy's Sketch! duh!



I sure wish I could deliver those hugs IRL!  AND spend the weekend in
this fabulous room...


Hope your week is off to a wonderful start!
