Cards come together pretty quickly when you're away from home with just some coloring books and scissors. Well, and Enamel Accents. I didn't tell you all that I packed all my stuff up in my Studio Bag from My Sweet Petunia that I won from this past Falliday Fest. What a great bag! The only thing is that there are so many pockets that I've hidden stuff on myself.
So, I was very relieved to see that Cathy has provided us with a simple sketch this week. I chose this coloring book page with the cute sloths and another page that has a really cool design that didn't even need any coloring. I used my ExactlyWrite address guide to draw out a box to cut out the sloths. It did end up a little bit smaller than I wanted, so I matted it with a thick black border. It still could've been bigger, but oh well. Then I took a scrap from yesterday's card and wrote "Let's Hang" for just a fun little hello friend kind of card. And, look! I packed my Enamel Accents because they're little and there was a pocket in my bag that they fit in, so I've got that little bit of embellishment. Sweet!

What a wonderful prize you won, Jen, and you surely have packed a lot inside your Studio Bag! I know what you mean about hiding things from yourself. That's how we are feeling now as we are getting our impact window installation finished up today. I actually have a legal pad with notes entitled, "Where is it?" Hehe! But this is such a fun card, and I love the sloths just hanging 'round! Hugs!

Wow, you sure did an excellent job working out of a bag, away from home. Your card is awesome. I love the cute image and the fab paper you put with it. I like your sentiment, too. I think you packed all the right "stuff".
