RS #40



Talk about to the wire.  I have been battling this nasty flu bug all week and energy levels are zero.  That being said I have never missed a RetroSketches sketch since the beginning and i wasn't going to pass up on this week's amazing sketch.

I need to be up early tomorrow my daughter has a cheer leading competition--Cheer for the Cause.  All of the girls are adorning pink Breast Cancer ribbons.  All the money raised is going to help the fight for Breast Cancer.




All Supplies are from Papertrey Ink unless otherwise noted:

Cardstock:  White
Patterned paper: Pure Poppy Bitty Dot Basics, Text Style Sugar Plum
Stamps: Santa's Coming to Town
Ink:  Real Red (Stampin' Up)
Dies: 2011 Heirloom Ornaments (Spellbinders)
other: foam tape, pure poppy saddle stitch ribbon, red button (Basic Grey), button twine
