Thank you, Ember, for all you have done to support TTS and to help me over the past year. You are a blessing, and we will miss you!

Sketch 44: Cards

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! If you have something special planned today, enjoy!!!! Today, we have 3 gorgeous cards to share with you. Once again, I loved looking at what each designer did with the upper-left corner from the sketch. I love how Danni decided to tear the patterned paper that she placed in the middle of the card instead of actually tearing something in the corner! And I love how Ember folded the corner down, and Chelsea designed something without it! Each so unique and awesome! Let's look!

Sketch 41: Cards,

Before, I share our cards today, I want to tell you that I am so excited for Danielle's debut!!! If you remember, Danielle Holsapple joined us about a month ago; however, she needed time to jump in and get on our schedule! I am pleased to announce that she is officially in the rotation and creating for Triple the Sketch! And no, you are not confused. I did just hire another Danielle last week. So, you will have to watch closely when Danielle Wycough begins to share her creations since we will have two Danielle's here at TTS. :) I will always include their last initial so hopefully that will help keep everyone straight!

Now onto today's creations! For our cards today, look at the different decorative edges each designer used for this sketch! I just love the variety!
