Sugar Creek Sketch

Today, I used one of the wonderful images at Sugar Creek Hollow and followed a sketch set by our Design Team Coordinator.  I did rotate the sketch but I don't think she will mind.  While I made this into a birthday card, I really think this image would make a lovely sympathy card if the right papers were selected and that is such a bonus because it can be so difficult to make sympathy cards.

Hop on over to the Sugar Creek Hollow blog and check the wonderful takes on this sketch by the rest of the team.  You will be inspired.

    Cec this is so beautiful and so well coordinated - the image with the DP. Looks like the image is from the same line. Great way to include a sentiment! Love these colors too and the flower embellishments just top it off perfectly.
