SFYTT Guest Designer Week 4...

Sigh! It's the last week of my month as Designer of the Month for i{heart}2stamp's Sketch For You to Try. Thank you again to Jen Del Muro for picking me, and for the wonderful sketches. Also, thanks to all the SFYTT Sisters for all their warm welcomes. But, a special thank you goes to my mom-in-law, the fabulous Susan, for playing along all month. I hope to see her own blog up sometime soon! Here is her lovely, elegant creation:

I simply love how Susan substituted the hodgepodged sentiment and ribbon for the element on the sketch, and the colors are now one of my favorite color combinations. Here is her card recipe:
