Your generosity astounds

Oops, I think I am coming down with something.  The headaches, sore throat, tiredness tell me that I should be rested.  My brain, however, tells me that crafting is the best antidote to a cold.  So my legs brought me to the crafting area and I started making a quick card for today's post.

My card is based on the color combo provided by Sunday Stamps:


and a sketch presented by Try Stampin' on Tuesday:


My card made use of some OLD paper, called Notebook, which I think was a paper pack launched back in 2008.  Interestingly I didn't buy the paper, and back then I didn't even know about Close to My Heart!  I got the paper in late 2009 when a consultant wanted to share her surplus with others and I still have a couple sheets today!  The twill ribbon is another oldie.  I got it back in 2010 but its neutral color is so versatile and I just can't part with it.  Oh yes, I'm sharing the history to participate in Use it Tuesday challenge.


Thanks for stopping by!
