CAS(E) this Sketch Challenge #16 - 1

Karolyn Loncon gave two sketches this week...landscape and portrait...your choice!  If you follow me at all, you know that I have three elderly aunts who all live in the Seattle area (and I am down here outside of Portland, Oregon) and I try to mail them a card once a month.  They are 93, 90 and 89!! and doing fabulously, if I do say so!  My own dad is 91...two of these aunts are his sisters!  Well, I made three "spring" cards, but just remembered that St. Patricks day is the 17th of March...and of course Easter is the 31st this year...I think they will be getting a few more cards this month!! 

I took the opportunity to use this sketch three ways.  I took the last Online Card Class where you use one stamp three ways.  I thought this would be a perfect time to revisit those and try to do something different with each one, but staying with the sketch.

This first card has PTI paper...the polka dots is part of the simply chartreuse pattern pack and I added some ripe avocado to my sentiment strip as well as the stamping of the shamrocks!  The stamps, dies and sentiment are all from Verve.

Thanks for checking in...two more to post!
