This week at Freshly Made Sketches our hostess Karren has given us a sketch with one of my favorite things: a tag! Of course, you don't need to use a tag on your card when you play along, but I jumped at the chance!
Karren lives in New Zealand where spring is coming up all over, but where I live it's all about fall. So when I saw the inspiration photo at Viva La Verve had some sunflowers in it that's the direction I went with my card. And I've made another thank you card because I always need lots of these at the end of the year. Where I work we get quite a few customers who give us gifts at Christmas time and I always donate the thank you cards to be sent to them. So every January I'm wiped out of cards. This year I thought I'd be smart and make lots of them so I'd be ready! So far so good!
