Happy New Year, everyone! I can't believe 2009 passed so quickly and we're off and running with 2010! I don't know about you, but Christmas really caught me off guard in 2009! It came and went very quickly at my house and I truly couldn't keep up with the usual busy, bustling pace of the holiday! I did get a chance to make a few cards for some special family members and I wanted to share one with you that I made for my nephew, Cas. A clean and simple sketch was used to feature retro-style prints from Stampin' Up!'s Holiday Lounge Designer Series Paper package. The great thing about this sketch is that it could easily be adapted for any occasion or event, but the best part is the fact that it's quick and easy!
Join me this Thursday, January 7th at Pals Paper Arts for the first challenge of the New Year, a Simple Sketch Challenge! I also have some exciting news to share with you, too! Thanks for stopping by! See you on Thursday!
All supplies used are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted:
Stamps: Sparkly & Bright, Four the HolidaysPaper: Taken with Teal, Sahara Sand, Whisper White card stock; Holiday Lounge Designer Series Paper
Ink: Taken with Teal
Tools: 1-1/4" Circle punch, 1" Circle punch

Very retro chic, Margaret! Can't wait to see what everyone comes up with for this week's sketch! XO and Happy New Year!
