If friends were flowers…
March 20th, 2009
My simplified version of sweet Cami-licious’ Weekend Sketch. Isn’t this a fun layout? Cami rocked it. Beware - the squares are smaller than they appear. 
This card was super-sized to 6×4 when I realized that my squares wouldn’t fit on an A2 cardbase. I’m fine with that.
The image and sentiment are both from Anna’s collection at Whipper Snapper Designs. The strip of cut ring was made with my Hello Kitty Ribbon die, coming soon from Sizzix. Third flower pot colored with Copics, paper pieced with Basic Grey paper and accented with a Spica Glitter pen.
I’m gonna check out the other ‘girl friday’ friends, and then I’ve got plans to see some of my oldest friends this weekend, and I couldn’t be more excited. Check out: Cambria, Charmaine, Jenn, Mary Jo, Laurie and sweet, sweet Sharon. I’ve got to get a move on the Friday work schedule.

I love the sunny yellow/red combo and that sweet colored image at the end. Friends do that to us, don’t they? Bring bright and happy color to our lives? PRETTY!
