Retro Sketches #116


Happy Memorial Day weekend...hope you all have a fun and safe holiday and enjoy the extra time with your families. My card was inspired by this holiday, red, white and blue always make for a fabulous card. When I saw this week's sketch for Retro Sketches #116, I knew I did not want to make a circle and I also wanted to use some of my supplies that have not seen any love. I pulled out my stitched star dies from Lil Inkers but they were just a bit too small so I put Lucy to work, she always seems to pull me out of card making issues with just the right help. And it only took 2 tries to get my star the right size. 
I made my card for one of my co-workers...she decided today to take another job for the next school year to teach in Nebraska and so many are giving her such a difficult time about her decision so I thought this sentiment was perfect for her. Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by...enjoy your holiday weekend!
