Creative Scrappers -Sketch #300

Hi and welcome to my blog !
So very happy to have been included on the Creative Scrappers team again !!!
This term Kristine has asked me to create two cards per month with the sketch.
It's really simple to convert layout sketches into cards.....just think smaller and without photos !
