FTL sketch 98



Hi All! Guess what? My nephew won a big singing/performing competition in upstate NY last night and now has an all-expenses paid trip to San Fransisco and a guaranteed audition for American Idol! I'm so pleased for him. He and his band have been together for a long time but his solo stuff is awesome.

This is a card I made last month actually, but I thought it almost qualified for the Clean and Simple blog FTL #98 sketch!
All stamps by PCD (I used 3 different sets here), leaf ribbon and CS from PTI.

Don't forget about the PCD sketch challenge for a chance to win a $50 gift card to the Practicing Creativity Designs store! Entries are due by midnight today!

Thanks for stopping by today friends! I promise to catch up on your blog posts as soon as I have a few spare minutes on the computer!

How fun for your nephew. You'll have to keep us posted on his audition.

Great color combo on this card. I always love cards with a trio layout like this. It also reminds me to use that leaf ribbon I bought, but never used;)
