ISSC19---Everything's Going to Be Okay!

Corrected a spelling typo... I can get "anal" like that (sad part is, I probably still missed some!) and didn't hit publish again... soooo I'm a little late getting this posted!!

Yippee it's Friday- I know I say this every Friday but, I MEAN it 'cause for me that means a weekend is almost here and a little free time... and another I Spy Sketch challenge!

Kick starting the weekend with the 19th sketch at I Spy Sketches. This is the sketch challenge where we come looking for YOUR cards for inspiration!! This week the sketch is based on this card  by Diane Varrecchione (pinkberry @ SCS) .

My card..


















Used the blooms from Verves' Joyful Blossoms long with the dies to match. Sentiment is a Verve Plain Jane (PJ) that I adore--- especially since it fits my work life right now!! It was stamped in Early Espresso onto the patterend paper and heat embossed with clear. Don't you love all the different patterns-- all from Simple Stories Fabulous collection-- makes me smile!! Scallop border was made with My Favorite Things scallop border die-namic. Added a seam binding bow with tails- seam binding from the Ribbon Carousel- (have fallen in love with this store- don't know what took me so long!)

The sketch...













It's your turn....have fun and get to Stampin!! Make a card using the sketch- you can take a bit o' liberty and link it up.... we'd LOVE to see what you create!! Make sure and stop by the blog to see what the other Special Agents created-serious creativity and inspiation!!

Thanks for stopping by!!  Appreciate all the kind words!!
