CAS(E) this Sketch #98

Since the holidays are upon us, I have been making a lot of holiday cards. There is just something about the Christmas season, isn't there? Again, keeping up with all the challenges, I took part in yet another one this week, Cas(e) this Sketch had this "sketch" for us this week:

Retro Sketch 138

I have started to take part in challenges, just for the fun of it. This is one of the first challenges I am attempting. I was actually able to make 2 cards for this challenge, hosted by Retro Sketches, since it seemed like such a simple and easy card to make for many different occasions.

Runway Inspired Challenge

While browsing the web, hopping from one great card blog to the other I came across the Runway Inspired Challenge Blog.

I do have to admit it took me some time to come up with something I was happy with, but I got it done, here is my take on the challenge:

After taking a few looks at the card I should have chosen a different sentiment, but it was stamped and done. I think a sentiment like “Just a Note” would have worked out better than the one I chose. That’s why I guess it’s very important to really think your cards through before stamping anything permanent. Hope you still enjoy the card!
