Freshly Made Sketches #686

Good morning, Happy Monday!  I made a quick card last night for this week's Freshly Made Sketches



I took a break on making flower cards, and wanted to create something different.  Strawberries and cherries are so popular right now, so I went with a strawberry birthday card.  

Paper: Recollections (Michaels)
Stamp: Bitty Birthday Wishes (MFT)

Hello Card!

Hello, friends! Today I'm sharing a hello card for this week's The Paper Players Challenge.  I went down the left hand column (flowers, die cut and lavender).  Also sharing at Inspired By Challenge. I was inspired by the gingham patterns.  









For my card, I used vellum for the leaves, and to my surprise, I like it!  It looks much better in person though.  I've been making a bunch of hello cards for the Creative Kindness Foundation through scrapbook.com., and this one will also be going in the mail this week.

Supplies:
Paper: All from my stash
Accessories: Hello sentiment cut with my Cricut Maker; Flower Focal Die (Waffle Flower); Blue Prints 20 Die-Namics (MFT); Vellum Paper (Recollections)
