The Last Chance products have been updated!  These will only be available while supplies last and some have been deeply discounted.  I created today's card for you before this list was updated.  The greeting in this card is from the Pattern of Friendship stamp set which is on the Last Chance list.  This card is based on the sketch from our Sketch Masterclass published a few weeks ago.  You can see the sketch below and scroll down for an explanation of the ways I applied the sketch to this card design.

Did you know that I have a Digital Download Store now?  Check it out and grab both free and paid items!

SPECIAL NOTE:  The Paper Snips used to make the banner shape for the greeting are no longer carried by Stampin' Up!  I will by using the term sharp scissors going forward and I try to find a good replacement item for you to enjoy.

The Card

Here's the card we're making today.  You can see that I expanded the focus layer that usually had the greeting.  I moved the decorative strip to the top of the card to create a space for a long horizontal greeting.  If you have long horizontal greetings in your crafty collection you might want to consider keeping this sketch in mind.
