Countryside Birthday - Sketch Frenzy Friday

The weather has turned cooler.  It's kind of nice to be able to turn my Air conditioner off and open the windows.
Fall is definitely in the air - the leaves are starting to turn, and autumn produce is starting to appear in our local Farmer's market - including apples from our local orchards.  Mmm, love those apples!!
Saturday and Sunday I am in Buckhorn, a cottage community northeast of here - as a vendor in their annual Gourd and craft show.  I was privileged enough to be extended a personal invitation to be a vendor at this event - quite a compliment really!!
But before I go off to this event, I have a sample card for today's blog hop with Sketch Frenzy Friday.

This sketch this week is by Tammy Fife.

65th Birthday Card - Unscripted Sketches 123

The sketch challenge with Unscripted Sketches this week is a piggyback one i.e. an optional addition can be added to the sketch.  This month it's numbers.
Since a friend of mine is turning 65 this month I took this opportunity to make a special 65th birthday card for her.


Stamp: Little Friend
Ink: Marina Mist
Papers: Marina Mist, Whisper White, Paisley Prints Designer Paper, Just Add Cake Designer Series Paper (the numbers)
Accessories: Embossing folders (Elegant lines, Finial Press, Square Lattice, Vintage Wallpaper), 3/4`circle punch, Baja Breeze seam binding, pearls

The Whisper White was cut into 1 inch panels and each panel was embossed with a different embossing folder.
