JAI370 and CCIC Herb Garden


Hi everyone!  I am squeaking in this card so I can make the Just Add Ink sketch deadline!  It's also for the pretty inspiration photo at Curtain Call!  Check them out:


I always need thank you cards, so I went to work, using images from Awesomely Artistic and Colorful Seasons, stamping them in Lemon Lime Twist and Wild Wasabi inks:



I added some "greenery" with diecuts from Bouquet Bunch and mounted it on a thick white card which was embossed with the Woodgrain embossing folder.  My sentiment came from an old SU kit and was stamped in Basic Gray and trimmed to a narrow border, under which I added a Smoky Slate mat with a tiny little bit of washi tape peeking out:


My final embellishment were a few little sequins!  Thanks for popping in today!  

Cassidy and the neighbor boy were playing last week....Cassidy was frustrated because she wanted to pedal the trike....typical only-child attitude, LOL!  They finally ended up swimming, which was a happier activity!


Enjoy your day and be blessed!

This really does remind me of an herb garden! It's the perfect summertime "thank you". It looks great on the white card base too. For someone who wasn't happy with Lemon Lime Twist I sure think you make some fun cards with it! :)
