The DP is from a sloooowly diminishing Costco DP pack I purchased a few years back and I pulled the rest of the colours from it. I VersaMarked the brocade blue panel under the the thank you sentiment with soccer balls since it is a thank you from the soccer team (thanks to a Studio G set I found at Mike's in the summer). Still on my crimper roll so added a strip to the card and white background panel...well...let's just say I'm still addicted LOL!
The rest of the Design Team has some great inspiration to get you going on this week's sketch.

LOL Skating with the kids today...so easy way to start the weekend :) have a good one!!
ReplyDeleteI was just visiting your SCS gallery and didn't see this one over there - I love it. The soccer ball layer is perfect for this card. I love the colours. I'm having fun taking note of the swiss dots and crimping on your cards. This crimped banner with button is just the perfect touch to finish off this wonderful card.
ReplyDeleteTotally worked the colors on this one, Marisa! I have a hard time with some brights! Beautiful!

ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect thankyou card Marisa. I love the colours and papers you have chosen. Adding the soccer balls is a great touch. Love the extra details of the border, crimping and button. Perfect take on Keesh's sketch. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteI love the crisp and clean nature of this card. Blue and white are just so striking! I'm sure the recipients will just love it.
ReplyDeleteI love the soccer theme, the red, white & blue colors and especially that crimped strip! Hmmm, maybe I do need a crimper!
ReplyDeleteIt *is* hard to work through a DP pack, isn't it? Hey, that could be one of my New Year's Resolutions. Work through a paper pack. Wow, I'd better get busy.
ReplyDeleteLove your red/white/blue combo here.
Ahhh, the Costco pack of paper. We all went there, didn't we? LOL! This card is wonderfulQ Love the crimping. Great job, Marisa!
