For today's Sketch. I can honestly say that after being in continuous labor for 52 hours with my first son, November 6th 1980 at 3:14 p.m. was the Best Day Ever! My DH was on his first Naval Cruise so he was not with me to welcome our first born. This is his birthday card this year. I sponged suede around the sentiment & panel underneath, used IBBG on the larger sand panel, popped up the scalloped nestie and horizontal strip. Thanks for stopping in today! ~Roberta

My belated sympathies for that LONG labor! Good thing we get such wonderful rewards from those trials!
This sketch seems made for those big sentiments and I love the way you used it - nice papers/colors for a man and I really like the texture that embossed horizontal strip adds.
