Perfect! FMS168





The bookshelves behind my desk in my craft room look very similar to the ones on my card - except in place of the plant I have a card tree.  It is frigid here in the northeast but life in my craft room is good.......books, stamping supplies and a mug of hot tea.....perfect!

I arranged the bookshelves on my card today with images from To Thine Own Shelf by Simon Says Stamp.  By adding Stampin' Up!'s Stacked With Love Designer Paper and a few strategic hearts my card became a Valentine! 



Amy O'Neil designed a fun sketch this week at Freshly Made Sketches - love those slightly askew panels!

    This card is too cute! I love the bookshelf and I'm so jealous that your shelves are so neatly arranged. Mine are piled full from top to bottom with as much stuff as I can cram into them. :)

    Perfect use of the sketch! The various shapes and the off-kilter books work just perfectly with the patterned panels - LOVE how the hearts peek out on the paper!
