A Pinwheel Thank You for CCMC249

Today's card is made using the great sketch for the challenge this week at Create with Connie and Mary.  Here is the sketch for the week.



Since I've had the pinwheel sizzlet out this week, I made a card using it and more of the Sunshine and Sprinkles DSP that I am loving.




I used Marina Mist CS as my base card, embossed with Cloudy Day EF.   The Whisper White CS layer is also embossed with Cloudy day, and blends in nicely.  I wanted to represent nature in the layers, so I added in layers of DSP from Sunshine and Sprinkles.  The yellow for the sun, green for the grass, and the blue with clouds for sky.  Finally, a fun pinwheel is added to the top of the layers and a greeting from Wishes Your Way.  This card is fun and looks like Spring to me!! 

I hope you will join us for the sketch challenge at Create with Connie and Mary.  Just hop over to their blog for all the details and to add your card!

If it doesn't move...stamp it!!
