Deconstructed Sketch 46 and Hand Stamped Sentiments 112

Happy Easter!

I probably should have made an Easter card to post today, but instead I made a "thank you" card using the yummy colors at Hand Stamped Sentiments and the very cool Deconstructed Sketch.




I waffled a bit about whether to use Very Vanilla or Crumb Cake as my neutral, so I ended up using both!      (Just the leaves are stamped in Crumb Cake).  I found that I still have a few pieces of textured Rich Razzleberry cardstock so I used that for one of the vertical layers as well as the die-cut flower.  I'm not sure the texture shows up very well in the picture, but in real life it looks pretty.

Just a quick post today as I'll be off to my sister's house for Easter dinner.  I have to bring our family's semi-famous raisin sauce for the ham and some biscuits for strawberry shortcake.  Yum!

This is such a pretty card! I can definitely see the textured paper and I love the cute little leaves, too. I also like how you framed the whole thing in stitching. Thank you for joining us at Hand Stamped Sentiments.

This is beautiful! I just found you through deconstructed sketch. I'm from MA too (now live in Southern NH). And I got hooked on stamping the same way you did!
