I Appreciate You

 Thank you to all my stamping friends for supporting my small business this year. I so enjoy stamping with you, teaching you, inspiring you, serving you and learning from you. I wish I had taken more pictures so I could show all of my class people.  I'm looking forward to more great memories in the coming year. There is no new card this week. Enjoy Thanksgiving with your family and friends. See you soon!

Alternate Card

There are only a few differences between the original card and the alternate card. The alternate card shows a Cherry Cobbler card base and a Crushed Curry mat. The background is not sponged with a blending brush but is speckled instead. The speckling is done with a Pool Party Stampin' Write marker from the Subtles Pack of Stampin' Write Markers (#161698). There gem color is changed but comes from the same package.
