I have my second card for this week's RetroSketches RS#40 because I just loved this sketch. It seems the perfect way to get some patterned papers out of my stash and onto some cards. I jumped onto the black chalkboard bandwagon for this card, and used a combination of white ink, white embossing powder, and a white colored pencil.
My next card is for both Dynamic Duos #31 and Less is More LIM#96, which are both red and green color challenges. Who wouldn't want to receive a cozy sweater like the one on this card?
Supplies Used (PTI):

Stamps: Sentiment Signs
Paper: Kraft, True Black, Basic Grey Out of Print
