So, the Monday holiday here in the US got me all messed up. I woke up this morning thinking that it was Tuesday. I was going to do this blog post when I got home from work - plenty of time before the Freshly Made Sketches post went live on Wednesday. But after puttering around the kitchen getting ready for work I realized it was actually Wednesday! So I'm a bit late with this post!
Kim is our hostess this week at Freshly Made Sketches and she's given us a fun sketch. I didn't immediately think of a tag for that layer on the top half of the card, but once I saw the AAA Cards Challenge I realized a tag would work really well. I used some bright washi tape on the tag and completed the decoration with a colorful sunflower.
Thanks for stopping by! We've got some great inspiration for you at Freshly Made Sketches so I hope you check us out and join us in the gallery!
