Make A Wish.....FMS374





Not dandelion season around here - just trying to get my 2019 birthday card stash built up! I love the bold sentiments from the new set Life Is Grand! 

After major snowfalls and crazy Arctic cold we had a beautiful sunny Super Bowl weekend so we spent some time at the lake.  Well we did have to snowblow a path down to the shore....






But it was so worth it for the view......







So many possibilities with Jen Brum's wonderful sketch this week at Freshly Made Sketches!  Our Design Time has made some amazing cards this week - have fun with those circles - we did!



Stamp Sets:  Life Is Grand, Dandelion Wishes, Beauty Abounds
Ink:  Gorgeous Grape, Memento Black, Craft White, Distress

What a beautiful card! Love the colors and fun design! Brrrr...that lake view looks pretty frigid to me! But it really is pretty! :)

Wow! I can't decide which is prettier, your card or the view! Both are gorgeous, Linda! I love your ink blended background and that dandelion is perfect with the sentiment. Have a great day!

Linda I just love this sketch this week. and I LOVE your card! I've used that set so many times and love each result... guess I'm thinking of my own childhood... I remember my dad holding the old dandelion and saying "now make a wish" ... A fond memory. Hugs

I agree, the Dandelion wishes is perfect for this time of year! You really rocked the challenge.

Love the dandelion image for the floating circles - a lovely b'day card - and what a lovely lake house and beautiful view!

What I wouldn't love to see a dandelion or two right about now. My wish is that this winter goes out like a lamb and that I don't have to shovel any snow...let alone snow blow a path to a destination far from my house! Your card is beautiful. I love the colors of the background!

Pat said...

Love how you showcased those dandelions on this beautiful card! Perfect colors and design!

Karren said...

Wow, I love this card! The dandelions were a great way to use the sketch and your ink-blended background looks fabulous!

Linda I absolutely adore this card! I think it's the colour combo (the purple for me is an unusual choice yet I love it with the ombre background colours) and the dandelion is perfect for the sketch. You FMS girls have really outdone yourselves this week. As for the snow - beautiful, but I'm glad I got to see the view without having to snowblow the path to get there!! Keep warm xx
