Seizing the opportunity...

Wow! What a busy week! I'm SO glad that it's Saturday.  It's going to be a crafting kind of weekend, and I'm excited  :)
There's a new sketch challenge blog called Seize the Sketch.  Today, I'm using their sketch #1.
For this card, I used up snippets and bits from my Crate Paper stash.  The image is from PaperArtsy and the twine is vintage.  Isn't that twine fun? There are metallic threads woven in that don't photograph well.  I love it.  I've had it forever, but never used it even though it makes me happy.  But it doesn't make me happy if I can't see it, so I decided to use it.  I needed the "happy". :)
Happy Stamping!
