I love Christmas but all the prep work is exhausting! I wasn’t feeling well all weekend and my son starting coughing again, too. I really miss being well when I’m sick. Oh, health, where are you? 🙂 At least I had time to freely create. It’s been ages since that’s happened. I chose to play along with the December 9th Sunday Sketch on the Studio Calico Blog. It was great sketch and this is what I came up with, something bright and happy to negate the dreary weather and my mood!
I die cut the navy panel using the Stitched Mat Collection: Rectangles from Lil’ Inker Designs, then cut banners from the Abroad 6×6 paper pack. I trimmed straight edges on the two largest ones but followed the lines on the chevron pattern using scissors. For the sentiment, I stamped the word bubble from Hey Y’All and words from Heyday Sentiments. Then I trimmed it and adhered it to the card with foam tape. I finished the card by adhering three wood veneer stars.

Hope you start feeling better soon Emily! We've been going from hot to cold weather – back and forth – so the boys are all fighting colds. Love the mix/match of papers on your card.
That sucks that you guys aren't feeling well again/still. It's a hard time of year to slow down & take it easy 🙁 I hope you guys manage to…at least school will be out shortly 🙂
I love this layout – and the stars are too perfect for that sentiment!
Wonderful CAS card Emily! Love the stars. So sorry you aren't feeling well…we had illness this weekend too…just starting to recover. Thank goodness for a helpful hubby!
Aah Emily! So sorry that you are feeling under the weather! I hope you get your strength back soon and that your little mister does not get sick too! I love this cheerie card and those gorgeous wood veneer stars!
