I made this card for this week’s Sketch Challenge at Create with Connie and Mary. This may be the first time I stamped the images from “So Very Grateful” with a color other than black. I wanted something soft and subtle, though, and Crumb Cake does the trick. I stamped both the tag and the Whisper White mat with Crumb Cake, and the additional mat is Soft Suede. The words are embossed with white embossing powder.

I got several nice comments about using the Angled Tag Topper punch on this sketch, and wanted to add the picture below which shows the “portrait” version of this card. There is more room on the tag. This layout would be great with the Scallop Tag Topper punch, too. I also liked the simple color scheme and message as a bookmark, so I made up a handful of those. The greetings here are from Perfect Pennants (Occasions Catalog, p 27).
