Just in CASE Thursday,
Patsy Waggoner (USA) here.
Each Sunday Alison Solven (my border buddy) and I take turns creating a card using one of our card sketches. Sketches can help to get your creativity fired up. They are open to interpretation, no real right or wrong way.
Let us think summer and the bright colors of poppies. Of course it will be a time yet before we see any type of flowers in Minnesota. I do not have any poppies in my flower bed but may try to plant some on the lake bank where the sun shines the most. I choose Poppy Parade and Pacific Point for my card today and love this great color combination.
You can create a card exactly using the sketch layout or change it up a bit. You can also turn the sketch so if it is a vertical sketch you might want to turn it to be horizontal. Let your imagination run wild!
