EONAC18 - Punches and a Sketch!

So it was Sue's suggestion that we pull out a couple of punches, some old DP and make a card. When I suggested that we use this week's FTL #90 (inspired by Becky's punch card), we decided that we would have a combined challenge (and I hope Natasha and Becky don't mind that we stole their thunder!).

So the deal is, if you want to play along with us, you must pull out some old DP...scraps that you have held on to for far too long! I am using some ol' K and Co. Amy Butler paper. I love this stuff and have quite an assortment of it...too bad I didn't use more of it up on this card! My only beef with this card is that I feel like my sentiment is floating with nothing to ground it. Perhaps if I had the layer on the way Becky did, it would feel "finished". Oh well, got's no time so it is going on the blog!


Don't forget to let us know you played by linking yourself up below!

Positive note of the day: Didn't get peed on like yesterday. Got some areas of the house cleaned up (and pitched more stuff when the kids weren't looking). Now just cross your fingers for me that Ave has a half-decent night tonight...she was up every half-hour last night!

I love that you used Kraft (I actually considered it, too) and also the button on the ribbon. Wonderful card and I think your sentiment looks fine, there.

This is such a fun sketch, seriously endless possibilities. And I adore the color combo you chose... kraft+ anything is one of my favs!

Very cute, I'm definitely going to be throwing a few of these together for teacher's gifts...I know I have plenty of scraps for it!

I've looked at this card many times and forgot to comment. It's perfectly lovely, digging the circles.

Another wonderful challenge Allison. I just love the sketch too. I actually made a card for it the first time around. Thanks!
