I hope you had a wonderful holiday season!! It was nice to have a little break but great to be back too. I have been busy creating for some upcoming projects and I look forward to sharing those with you! Word of warning…..part of my holiday fun is a computer that has decided to give me fits. I will probably have to send it in for repairs so I apologize in advance for any late posts or gaps in posting. You just don’t realize how much you rely on these silly things until you don’t have them!
My friend Linda Callahan has created just the right sketch for us at Freshly Made Sketches and I know you will have fun with it. I kept it simple (because, well, the computer….) and I stuck with just the gold and the kraft. I used this sweet sentiment from Mama Elephant’s Butterfly Kisses and embossed it in gold. Then I added the gold glitter tape and the gold thread and a few sequins to finish. You can dress you version of the sketch up or keep it simple….your choice!
This is my first post of the day and the second one will be out soon. A great inspiration piece from The Card Concept! See you soon!
Supplies:
Stamp: Butterfly Kisses (Mama Elephant); Ink: Versamark; Paper: Kraft; Accessories: Heat Tool, Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder, Gold Glitter Tape (SU retired), Gold Thread (SU), Gold Sequins

Hi Jen,
What a gorgeous card! It’s a real CAS-one, but also glamorous because of the gold.
Great way of using the sketch.
I wish you a beautiful and full of Newton & SU 2017!
I found the Fabriano watercolor paper and it’s great! Thanks again!

Gold and kraft is such a fabulous look and not one I’ve thought of! You nailed the sketch with this one – just gorgeous!
It’s so fun to see gold glitter against kraft — unexpected and beautiful! I hope your computer issues are an easy fix!
