That big cursive Merry die cut was perfect for Cecile's sketch this week! I taught cursive writing for many years to my third graders.....they loved it! It makes me sad that it is no longer taught in most schools. Everyone's handwriting is unique and as cardmakers we do appreciate the value of a handwritten note.......and envelope! I have already started addressing envelopes - now I need to get busy finishing up what goes in them!
I love Cecile's creative sketch this week! Hope you join us at Freshly Made Sketches!
Stamp Set: Merry Christmas To All
Paper: Whisper White, Gold Foil, Shaded Spruce, All Is Bright DSP

So pretty! Love the clean design, perfect designer paper background too! :)
ReplyDeleteThere's something about a BIG BOLD sentiment like this one - it adds the perfect POW factor! LOve your use of patterned paper, Linda! Such a beautiful Christmas card!

Love your take on the sketch. I'm sorry they don't teach cursive anymore too!
ReplyDeleteThis is so beautiful Linda! I love the clean-ness of this card and the festive colours you've used.
ReplyDeleteYou created the most delightful handwriting like Christmas card, Linda! I love cursive writing too and that bold "Merry" makes a perfect steak on the swirly line.
