Beautiful Day

Happy Columbus Day to my fellow Americans, and Happy Thanksgiving to all my friends north of the border! I have the day off today, which I desperately need...I'm trying to recover from the craziness of homecoming week!

I played along with two of my favorite challenge sites today: Kazan's Sketch 63 and The Play Date Cafe Challenge 50. It felt good to make a card just for fun, and I love the way it turned out. Hope you love it, too!

Have a great week!

Stamps: Sky's the Limit (Hero Arts)
Paper: Berry Sorbet, Garden Green, PTI white, PTI pp
