Hi! Today is my birthday. Happy Birthday to me!!!! I've had a dinner with my family, tons of well wishes on facebook, and next week is the Gigglers monthly birthday dinner and this month is MINE! So lots of beautiful cards and great friends and lots of giggles.
My card today is for two challenges. The Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge#122 which is a cute sketch by Renee Lynch. And this sketch works right into Joan's Challenge at SCS for Layered Scallops in TLC402.
This card is made with just blue and white with a little brown sponging. For my scallops I used both a punch and a die. I learned how to do a double bow at the CKC in Lancaster this year, but I tried a triple. Hope you enjoy it. And for all of you that are still up, the election is over. Which means tomorrow I will not have 15 calls from faceless recordings, elected officals recording, and few real people, and a really exciting call from Clint Eastwood. Although I would probably have voted for anyone that would promise not to call me in the afternoon when I'm taking a nap because I have a cold.
