I Cherry-ish You

Cherry Sketch2.

Hard to believe that a month has gone by without stamping.  I really enjoyed my break.  I think it is good for your body and mind to just let go of things and relax.  

Thank you all that have emailed me with concerns about our well being here in NC.  I had lots of phone calls and emails.  I feel blessed.  Luckily we had no damage.  I am swamped at work right now dealing with many insurance claims for those that did.  Even some of our design team at Mo's were affected by this devastating storm.  

This week at Mo's the challenge is a sketch.  Here is the card I created for the challenge:
 
Cherry Sketch.

I chose Mo's Digital Pencil Image Cherry. I used my Spellbinders Grand Label Twenty Three die for my card shape and my circle dies for the image. I added the leafy vine and some heart cherry buttons.  Come play along with our challenge..MO's Digital Pencil Challenge.

    Oh my gosh, Dawn, I didn't know you lived in NC - so glad to hear you and your family are fine. I have been keeping everyone along the Coast in my prayers. My niece lives in Vermont and her town was flooded, so she could not leave her home for a bit.

    Your card is just adorable and the image is sweet. As always, I love your coloring - it's inspiring!!

    Thanks for sharing.

    You are so talented, Dawn....I'm always awed and amazed at your creations. Glad to hear you survived the storm but sorry to hear you are so busy at work.
    I'm looking forward to retirement at the end of this year so that I can have more time to just craft and play.

    Oh Dawn...I just noticed..."cherry-ish"!! Brilliant!! I love the way your mind works, girlfriend!! Your cards always have the best embellies...and the ribbons/bows are always out of this world...without exception!! Welcome back...we've missed you. Am so glad you had a bit of time to rest...you'll need all your energy now with all of the claims you'll be processing. Just take care of yourself...try not to burn the candle at both ends. Big hugs...Pat
