Jennifer has created a great sketch for us this week at Freshly Made Sketches. I am loving the fun colors in the new Laughing Lola line of products by Close To My Heart. The new Autumn/Winter Idea Book goes live tomorrow, be sure and check back to see all of the new products! My card was created with a mix of papers and chipboard shapes. The chipboard shapes just happened to be the right size for the sketch and the colors coordinate with no effort on my part! Here is the original sketch design to get you started on your own creation-
I kept the inside blank to use as a notecard. Did you know that the Close To My Heart pattern papers come complete with a coordinating zip strip? These little 1/2″ strips come in coordinating colors and are so handy to use as borders on your projects. The backside of the strips list the coordinating colors for the paper, just in case you need a little help picking colors for your project! I love this swirly coordinating print!

Z1790 Cricut Artiste Collection
G1064 Laughing Lola Cardmaking Kit
