To A Dear Friend

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Connie and Mary sketch challenge!

We are still switching up our challenges a bit to sketches from the new catalog. Here our latest challenge –

This is an excellent go-to layout for me!

Trying to show off one of the fabulous Designer Series Paper on sale, I went with the Bloom Where You Are Planted Designer Series Paper –

This card was quite fun to create –

Minimal stamping as the wonderful papers did all the work for me!

The brick pattern, greenish pot, and the plant are all found in the papers! There are coordinating dies as well to make cutting a breeze! Although, you could fussy cut the items as well. This is the Plentiful Plants Bundle –

I also used the plant stand from the dies in Soft Suede to create a nice, retro look!

Check out all the wonderful Design Team creations on our Create with Connie and Mary blog. Create a card using our challenge and you can post it on our Facebook page.
