Sing...

OK, this is really bizarre! I saw the new sketch for 2S4Y on my Google reader this morning and saved the picture of Kazan's new sketch, but I just went to the site now and it's not there!!! Maybe Google reader is giving me a timed post early???? Anyway, I liked the sketch so much that I just went and made this card for it:
This was the sketch I saw:
Recipe details:
Card is 6x6"
Cardstock: Sahara Sand, Basic Black
Paper: Prima "Harmony"(the music paper), retired SU DSP (sorry I don't know what it's called)
Stamps: Always
Ink: VersaMark, True Thyme, and Apricot and Celery Markers
Other: Very Vanilla wide grosgrain ribbon, Prima flowers, American Crafts black velvet thickers (yummy!), SU Neutrals buttons, linen thread, black embossing powder, cutter kit distressing tool.

I just had a thought...if the post was timed I may have gotten it early because it is already Monday in Australia and not in the US...tricky!!!

Anyway, hope you like it. It's a bit big for a normal envelope...I really need to get some bigger ones...and I have no idea who I will give it to, but I was inspired to make it because of all the gorgeous birds in my neighbourhood. Every morning I wake to a glorious chorus of bird song and it just makes for a lovely start to the day :)

Hope your Monday is wonderful,
Kristie

Eeek Kristie you busted me girl! I was preparing the post yesterday and clicked publish instead of save. Om-gosh I knew someone would catch me out. No worries though - you do have the right sketch - you just got it a tad bit earlier than some *wink*...and I love what you did with it too.
Hugs
