Guest Designer for SCS CAS Challenge: Thank You Card

Hi everyone and happy Monday :)

I am very excited today, because I was asked by the lovely Jen (aka Miss Boo) at Splitcoaststampers to be a guest designer for this weeks "Clean and Simple Cards Challenge".
Well of course I said "yessssssss please" *lol*

The current challenge is a "stair-step sketch" challenge with a given card to use as inspiration. When I began gathering my supplies and started to create, it was NOT my intention to copy the card.... seriously!!!

But in the end... my card was a total CASE of the given card  (see the challenge thread for the inspirational card) .... oh well! *lol*

I hope you will stop by at Splitcoaststampers and participate in the challenge!
I would be really delighted to see you playing along and uploading your card to the SCS gallery! :)

You can find all details about the challenge ***HERE***

Please refer to the grey boxes below this post for step-by-step instructions and a complete list of supplies :)

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I hope to see you here on my blog again, soon :)
