2 Weeks ago I made this card for my mum & dad. I couldn't upload it on this blog sooner, because I had to wait for her to receive it in the mail. :-).No fun in getting a card you've already seen on the blog, is it? Since I live quite rural in Australia it takes a while for my card to travel to the Netherlands. I used this 'Get Sketchy' sketch and wanted to use red & white.
I found this beautiful red&white Stampin' Up ribbon in my stash that was just perfect. I've put 2 strips of ribbon together to make it wider. Then used a great stampset from Unitiy.
The sentiment on the inside is from a Unity stamp from the same set and says: Sending a little happy. I stitched the rectangle and raised the hot-air balloon with dimensionals.
Have a good weekend!

Working through the pile of mail that was waiting for us, there was a card from a friend. She was moving houses. I just had to use my new papers. Recently I bought Stampin' Up's Pendant Park stamp set in one of the sales. Hadn't really used it yet. I love the little bench with the squirrels, so I thought instead of the predictable house on the card, I'd use this bench. I looked at some old Mojo Monday sketches and picked 1 where I could use several pattern papers. And this is how it turned out! 
When it was finished, I'd preferred it when I had clear embossed the bench but the card was all done by then. Have to keep that in mind for another time then ;-).
