Ring Ring, Anyone There?

Oh, Hello again my friends. I am back with another card for the Retro Sketch Challenge for this week. This Timeless Talk was another set that my friend  Julia had that I don't so wanted to play with it. I wanted to make another card with the lovely Tape It stamp set which I figured was just perfect for this challenge.  I love that set to make it look like I used Washi Tape. Love it!

Yes, this card just makes me happy like being around my friend Julia. Here is a picture of us at that garden we visited.

I had the best time with her last weekend and it just went so darn fast. She is such a dear treasured friend. Look at her in her pearls. So classy!

On my card I used the Color Coach to pick the colors and they came out so pretty and bright I think.
I used Pumkin Pie for my card base and then a layer of Whisper White. The colors I used for the Tape IT images are Basic Gray, Real Red and Pumpkin Pie. I stamped the image for the phone on a scrap of Whisper White and then embossed it with clear embossing powder. I punched it out with the Scallop Circle Punch. Then I stamped the Oh, Hello from the stamp set Oh, Hello. Julia couldn't find the other Hello there so I used that one. I used the Apothecary Accents Framelits and then sponged but with Pumpkin Pie ink. I used the Gorgeous Grunge set to stamp between the tape images.

Oh Hello

Oh hello, I know it has been a long time but I have been so busy like I am sure you have. My sister and I got curtains made for two of my windows and helped my sister Kathy pack since she will be moving to Colorado.  :-(  
I found the coolest fabric to make my craft room curtains out of so when I get them done I will take pics for you. Look at this cute fabric that I found to make curtains out of. Well, my sister did most of it.  I was going to put these in my stamp room but my new couch comes tomorrow and I figured it was more important to cover that window first since the sun comes in that side. I have blinds but wanted curtains too. 

Okay onto my card. I wanted to send a card to Irv for thanking him for taking time out of his bus schedule to help me move and always takes me out. Since he is a tractor mechanic I used this Tim Holtz embossing folder I have   to make a thank you. I stamped this for the FMS sketch challenge this week. The only thing that is SU is the Oh Hello set and of course the ink and card stock. I sure will miss the Not Quite Navy color that is retiring. :-( 
Let me know if you have any questions and thanks for stopping by. Here is the link for FMS88 to see all the other creative cards http://www.freshlymadesketches.blogspot.com.
