Card of the Day - Love & Affection

 Hello and welcome back! Today's card is for the first of my October birthdays. I found a sketch in a challenge that I liked and pulled the first DSP from my stash to inspire me. My papers are filed alphabetically and I have quite a few!

The top row is from miscellaneous manufacturers (my contraband!) but that second row is all Stampin' Up! The package I pulled is the Affectionately Yours Specialty DSP, so I also pulled the coordinating stamp set - Love & Affection. Here's the card:

I also used the coordinating embossing folder for the layer under the sentiment banner. For some added interest I adhered a boutique detail embellishment. I was able to go a bit bulky since this card will be hand-delivered.

I'll be making a few more of these, but needed to get this one done today!

The design was inspired by the sketch challenge at Freshly Made Sketches.

Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!
