Duos #42, CAS(E) this Sketch #18 & Twinery Chevron & Twine



Happy Thursday!

Today is the last day of the week for my kids, we begin our March Break (Canadian Spring Break) tomorrow so I am grabbing the little free time I will have left for a week to create a card for Dynamic Duos, CAS(E) this SketchThe Twinery and the Simon Says Stamps A Bit O'Green challenge.  So far today I have made a lasagna, done three loads of laundry, made this card and I leave in an hour for an MS treatment which should zap my energy for the rest of the day. So I am enjoying a productive morning.  Have a great day!

Stamps: chevron background (Impression Obsession) Think Big Favorites #15 (Papertrey Ink)

Wow--this is one heck of a card. I love how the green and yellow look together. Your bright, sunny sentiment looks wonderful against that chevron, and the little twine bow us the perfect added touch. You were super productive and busy this morning.
