AYSI338 Thanks So Much

Happy Sunday, peeps!  I haven't posted for a week! Gee whizzies! I had a very busy few days, but I also came down with a nasty cold, and John's been sick for several weeks, so I was just taking it easy!  I was itching to get back into my craft room however, so I snuck in yesterday afternoon to make a thank you card for a friend!  I used the sketch from As You See It:

So here we go:

I deviated a tiny bit from the sketch, using an image from Sentimental Christmas, cutting it out with a circle die instead of the rectangular shape. My panel is Azure Afternoon and I matted it with Shaded Spruce to match the "greenery".  Although the horizontal piece is covered up by that greenery, it was also cut from a piece of Sentimental Christmas, then embellished with some Shaded Spruce and Poppy Parade pine and berry diecuts.  I also fussy-cut a little bird to add to the center of the spray:

The sentiment from Latte Love was embossed in white:

The front of the card is also embossed with the Snowflake Sky embossing folder!  This will go out in the mail tomorrow!

While I was "resting" I decorated a wooden box that John made me after last Christmas; it is actually four pieces of wood that velcro together and they go around the bottom of our Christmas tree to look like a crate.  Dana had one for her tree and when I looked at them online, I thought they were a little pricey, so John stepped up to the plate and went to work! He painted it white and I stenciled a design on it.  It turned out pretty well:

Thanks for popping in today!  Enjoy it and be blessed!
