I made this monochromatic thank you note for today's sketch challenge, SC292, and for Speedy the Cat's Friends Challenge #14, to make a thank you card. Oh, this is also for a challenge to use NO EMBELLISHMENTS!! Boy, that *was* a challenge
I know that in the sketch the fan elements were designed to hang off the edge of the card, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it!! So this is a modified version of the sketch (the scaredy cat's version!). This cool purse card by my friend and fellow Punchkateer debzi333 [My next elegant evening out purse! :) by debzi333 at Splitcoaststampers inspired me to pull out my Very Vintage SU wheel! Thanks, Debzi!!!
