Wish Big!

Last week was card sketch week at Sketch Support. I am still running a bit behind (holiday mode) so I am just posting my card now. Here is the sketch by Allison Davis. You can visit the Sketch Support site and download a printable copy for yourself.

Here is my version. I am not much of a card maker. I would usually try and make this sketch into a 2-page layout, but my BFF was celebrating a birthday and I wanted to make her a special card so I thought I would give it a try.

Wish Big

I stuck with the cupcake theme and I pulled out a stamp that I had and did a little paper piecing.

Wish Big 4

I love this ribbon and I used my last little piece to make this bow.

Wish Big 3

I created a border using a black pen and my sentiment stamp.

Wish Big 2

It was successful because Joanne loved it. I also gave her this rag quilt that Amanda and I worked on. Joanne had seen Amanda working on some of the squares and fell in love with it. I knew then that this quilt had found a home where it would be loved and well used. Happy Birthday Joanne!
