It’s Thursday and you know that means it is time for a Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge. We have a fun sketch to inspire you! This challenge runs for TWO WEEKS so our Challenge Team can get ready for the upcoming holidays! Check back on December 28th!

THOUGHTFUL EXPRESSIONS
Yeah! The new Mini Catalog has been released for demonstrator preorder! I thought the flower in this stamp set would work great with this sketch. And I paired it with the Flight & Airy Designer Paper which is a Sale-A-Bration option! Get it free when you buy this bundle!

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Crumb Cake cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- A 2-1/4 x 5 piece of Flirty Flamingo cardstock was added to the center.
- The greeting from Thoughtful Expressions was stamped with Memento Black Ink in the lower right corner.
- Three 1 x 4 strips of Flight & Airy DSP were added at angles.
- The 2 x 3 panel of Basic White cardstock was stamped with the flower in Memento Black Ink, the colored with Petal Pink, Flirty Flamingo, Lost Lagoon and Pool Party Stampin’ Blends. It was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Some Opaque Faceted Gems were added to the center of the flowers for a little bling!
