Card patterns Sketch #73

I am now back in CA after a 12-day trip to WA and GA. We're here just for a couple of days before hit the road again. The last leg of our trip is Chicago for the CHA Trade Show. I can't wait. I got my badge info, so it's official...If you're going to be there, let me know. I would love to meet you. I'll be at the SRM Stickers booth for part of the time, and for another company, which I can't share yet!

Anyway, here is this week's Card Patterns sketch. There are some great Unity stamps up for grabs, so make sure you try out this easy sketch:



And here is my card using my latest stamp set, Hugs and Prayers. I layered the petals for added effect.


And some random photos from our trip to GA. My daughter is learning how to cross-stitch from Nana.

All sweaty from the GA humidity, but having a great time.
Finally, Katy was scared of my BIL's dog, Bella Mocha, because it liked to jump on her and lick her. She finally warmed up to Bella on our very last day there. That was a big step for her.
