This is my card for today's sketch challenge. This is my story.
1. I really wanted this set! I got it from Stamps4sanity! Thank you Joanne, you are so kind!
2. I really wanted to make a thank you card for her using this set. I did!
3. I really wanted to use these fun copper brads I got when I visited a stamping expo with my friends. I did!
4. I really wanted to have 5 stars with brads showing! ( there is one under the main panel) Roxie said I couldn't turn my square!
5. I really wanted a new light bulb in the light fixture so this picture would not be so dark. I forgot to buy one, again!
6. I really wanted to win the lottery and stamp full time for fun. It could happen!
Sometimes we get want we want, sometimes we have to keep trying...Send cash for lottery tickets! (Yikes! I should probably tell you I am just kidding....I might be breaking some rule!)

Cool card, Cindy! I love the stars and brad work; how kind of Joanne to send you this awesome set that you wanted so badly! As for the lightbulb issue, isn't that what husbands are for?

hmmm have to comment again for this one ... came back to see what colors you used for this and had another look ...... finally registered that you stamped the word wanted on the thin panel ..... duhhhhhhhh .... I thought it was some background you had done first up ...... guess I should have put my glasses on ;)
