Chalkboard Greetings – Freshly Made Sketches #175

SKP Watermarked Photos2-106

I was inspired this weekend to join in over at freshly Made Sketches by their super fun, very flexible, sketch by Jen B.:

FMS175

It looks easy, right? Lots of options, right? lol. Not for me apparently. This card morphed from my original idea into something COMPLETELY different!! That’s okay, some days are like that!

Everyone needs a bit of encouragement once in awhile, right? Sometimes we get so wrapped up in the ‘what if’ that we become paralyzed to what could be, and we just need a little nudge to get bring the goal back in focus…

I was off the radar last week, still getting my feet back under me from being sick, but I’m hoping to have lots to post this week!

I hope you have a great start to your week, here it is supposed to be wet and cold, but we need it so I’m happy about it!!

Wishing you joy and blessings!
