Wanted to get this month's Sketch For You To Try done early as June is always insanely busy with it being the last month of school before summer vacation. Parent and teacher teas, Sports Day, year end field trips and parties, soccer tournaments, piano recitals and exams, and the list goes on! Tired just thinking about it! 
Sorry...enough complaining! Back to the card. I combined this month's SFYTT with this week's ColourQ which had a wonderful mix of colours to work with. After a brief hiatus, I'm back to flowers and polka dots....sorry...well, not really....LOL...I just love making cards with them.Lots of Verve goodies on this card - happy sigh. Used three different sets for this card. Just love how you can mix and match Verve stamps and dies - just in case you hadn't noticed how much I use them :)
Wishing you a fabulous day! Thanks for dropping by.
What's In It?
Stamps: Celebration of Thanks, Bloom and Grow, Great Friend (Verve)
Paper: Certainly Celery, Read Red DSP, Teal, Turquoise
