I used Susan's Postmarked Wednesday sketch for a card and created a 12 x12 layout. I loved sketch week. Sometimes I just look at all my stuff and don't know where to start. I love having a jumping off point. Thanks AC team for such great inspo!

Is there any chance that I can somehow get an entire spool of the flower ribbon? I love it!!!

Awe. I missed the deadline-I am so tired of these snow storms already-this Florida girl wants to go home! I did my layout but lost power last night. Good luck ladies-I looked at all the layouts/cards and they are beautiful!
