OWH Sketch #97

It's almost a crime to be inside making cards today....55 degrees!  It's gorgeous out there, so I'm in a hurry today.  After looking at some of the other cards for today's challenge, I realize that I made this sketch a lot more complicated than it really is.  I think tonight I'll spend a little time at it again, and see what I can do, without feeling like  I have to match up a bunch of different papers.   The first card I may give to my boss.  He's retiring on Thursday.
Thanks for looking!   ~Nancy F.

  3. Nancy, both of your cards are terrific. I love the first one for your boss. I"m sure he'll really like it also and the sentiment is just perfect. That second card just makes me smaile. It is so cute. Of course I like anything with animals, especially dogs. I love the papers on both cards. You did not over think your cards this week, it was I that was taking the easy way out this week. It seemed too hard to match papers, so I went with just one. Just came in from outdoors. It was gorgeous. Try to get out, relax and take in the fresh air.

  8. These are both really fun and whimsical! I like how both the gear embellishments and the dog "cross over" the line/gap of the sketch. It adds a lot of dimension to both of these.
