My wonderful teammate Verena has a gorgeous CAS style about her cards - perfect for Freshly Made Sketches #736 and her happy sketch this week ...
I've also found it perfect for a fun 21st birthday card for my granddaughter!
Where have the years gone? I'm sure she's thrilled about this milestone
birthday - but this grammy really wishes she was still 5!
These 'old birds' are from Ellen Hutson, designed by Brandi Kincaid,
and go way back to 2019! But I still love them!
Three of five 'chicks' found their way onto Verena's circles - though
I can't say they are in 'pecking order!' Another oldie but goodie from
MFT: Jumbo Ric Rac brought more fun as does the burlap texture from
HoneyBee's embossing folder.
I'll save the inside sentiment just for Lola!
Hope this and all the wonderful inspiration from my teamies get
your creative juices flowing - come play!
