Thanks & Free Font Fridays

This is my take on the Sketch Challenge (SC285) on Splitcoaststampers. I like this one~ very versatile. So I will be duplicating this one at least a few times. I used the newer Basic Grey papers called "Green at Heart"; some of the DPs in the pad match well with SU! Rich Razzleberry and Melon Mambo which is what I used here.

The "Thank You" sentiment was computer generated using Creating Keepsakes font called Woodbine Swatches. I signed up as a member for the CK Club when I was at the CK convention in St. Louis back in April. One of the perks is access to over 100 free fonts. But you don't have to be a member to get free CK fonts. Each Friday, "Free Font Friday", a new font is available for downloading for that week & then replaced with another font the following Friday. I am really happy I joined this club not only for the free fonts but for the scrapbooking forum and postings and especially free access to digital magazine issues of Creating Keepsakes and Simple Scrapbooks. Since I struggle with scrapbooking this is really great for me.

Happy Friday!

Supplies:
Images: Eastern Blooms (SU!), Sentiment- Computer generated; font- CK Woodbine Swatches
Paper: Rich Razzleberry, Melon Mambo, White (SU); DP- Green at Heart (Basic Grey)
Ink: Pink Passion (I don't have a Melon Mambo pad...at least not yet {{WINK}}
Accessories: Punches- 1' circle, 1 1/4" circle, 1 1/4" square, 1 3/8" square (SU!); paper ribbon (Green at Heart- Basic Grey); brads (Basic Grey)

Marilyn thanks for sharing the message about the free fonts. I just found your blog today, and I will be back! I just love your card designs. Your challenges that you participate in are giving me motivation, to do the same. I really like what you did with the green paper ribbon. I need to find some of that for sure.

Beautiful colors on this one and I love the green punched strips across the top! I have been so far behind in blog land this summer with everything that has been going on. Hopefully I can catch up soon!
