RS#23 - Exciting News!

Hi there!  I've got some exciting news to share today, I've been asked to be the first "Retro Sketches Headliner" and design cards along with the Retro Sketches design team through the month of August!  Yay!  I'm really looking forward to working with the talented women from the RS team, I've been a fan of the sketch challenges since they've started.
Above is the fun Retro Sketch challenge #23 for this week.  For my card I used the Papertrey Ink stamp set Heart-2-Heart #6 along with the coordinating dies to create a get well card.
Supplies: Heart-2-Heart + dies, Simple Stripes IP, Bitty Bird (for the swirly border), Scallop border punch, Buttons, Bakers twine, Foam tape.  Colors: Marina Mist, Real Red, Daffodil Delight.
 
Be sure to pop over to the RetroSketches blog to check out what Arielle, Kasia and Laurie have in store for you, then link up your own fabulous take on this cute sketch.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!
