Stampin’ Up! a Spanish Sweet Treat

There are many Spanish words that need to be translated.  This one, however, doesn’t need one… that’s because ‘Sweet Treats’ have arrived (LoL).  In honor of what many think of a holiday, I pay tribute to Halloween, which I love to think of it as a celebration of Harvest.  That is exactly what the lovely Hostess Four Seasons stamp set portrays through my eyes.  In a few months I’ll be using it in a different color and giving it a festive feel and look.

I used the Adorning Accents Edgelits to give it a soft pedal look and so it would match the sketch in Freshly Made Sketches #51.  It’s been a while since I’ve entered a card sketch and I had to get back into the groove of things.  After all, creating a sweet treat for myself relieves the stress of the days I spend at work.

I almost didn’t post this card because I thought the colors were too rich and at first it didn’t feel right, but I wanted to represent myself in the Freshly Made Sketches card challenge.  My dad always says, great things are meant to be shared and with his words, I went ahead and posted it.  Hope you like it and giving you a million “thank you’s” are never enough for visiting me today.  YOU took the time to look and read my blog.  You make me very happy.  If you arrived here by accident or just surfing get a treat every once in a while by signing up for my Blog Updates.
