This is my card for today's sketch challenge. You will find the complete story behind this card on my blog. http://sdbeansfromtheheart.blogspot....christmas.html
I think that Stampin' Up made a mistake when they retired the color "Blashful Blue". This is such a beatiful light blue color. That's just my opinion.
