Sketch Challenge: I used the layout to create a quilt design with die-cut squares from scraps and then dry embossed the piece with a quilt pattern. Scored two lines down the left side for interest and to tie into the plaid patterns. Added a die-cut label for the sentiment.
Color Challenge: Garden Green, Cherry Cobbler, Pear Pizzazz with gold heat embossing for the metallic dessert option. I had DSP in the right colors and with patterns that looked masculine.
Teapotters: Create a thank you for your kindness note with green as a symbol of hope. Going to Andrew for his generosity to pay off school lunch debt for the kids and for inspiring others to get involved, too.
Thanks for looking! Hope you will enjoy the sketch!

Lovely design Diane, it definitely looks like a patchwork quilt, and the embossing is a bonus detail. Terrific thank you card for Andrew and an absolutely wonderful take on all three challenges!
