I love Wednesday's challenge here on SCS. You see I'm a color outside the lines kinda of gurl and this is a challenge that definitely keeps me on the straight line. Thank you Cathy for todays really fun sketch!!!
My eldest son had a big disappointed yesterday and I wanted to create a visual for him that perhaps words fail to convey...Dad and I just ache for him (you never grow out of parenting, do you???) Anyway, I am hoping that this will encourage him to remember that everything in life has a purpose...it's just learning to be patient and 'carry on' in spite of how your ReALlY feel.
No stamping on this one...all papers from an ancient Cosmo Cricket boy paper group. I cut and popped the polka dots onto the banner dots, hand cut the banners and the sentiment. Used Tim's tiny stapler for those staples I adore. As well as one of the mod TH embossing folder on the white space. a tiny bit of trim, some other ancient bubble letters to spell loved sons' name.
Thanks for much for taking the time to stop by today. Happy Wednesday all...just like last weeks' sketch challenge, time is slipping into the future, I gotta run...

Susan, a wonderful card to convey your caring to your son, Sam. Obviously a lot of thought and care went into this card....popping all those dots up alone. A wonderful mix of patterns, texture and color.
