Welcome! Thank you for visiting Theresa’s Treasures Paper Crafts! I am Theresa, a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator in Arizona, USA. Today is the monthly Inspirations in Ink Blog Hop! I am excited to be hopping with such talented demonstrators today. Today is a Sketch Challenge! Be sure to check out everyone’s projects. For my project, I used the Online Exclusive Garden Meadow Bundle. When you are ready, you may order from my Online Store HERE.
I chose the Garden Meadow Bundle because I love gardening! Flowers are my favorite! I love to play in the dirt! Somehow that is very grounding.
And living in the desert, I am able to see a lot of wildlife. There are two varieties of quail visiting my garden daily.
Measurements
- Pecan Pie cardstock card base: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″
- Basic White cardstock: 3″ x 4 1/2″ to die cut the Deckled Rectangle and 1/2″ x 2 3/4″ for the sentiment. 3 3/4″ x 5″ for the inside. You will need scrap to stamp all of the images on.

Hi Theresa –
I absolutely love your newest creation. I usually don’t care for “cowboy” type cards, but this one was a WOW! I liked it so much with all the flower and those dragonfly additions. It’s been awhile since we met, and I’ve now moved to MN and got married! But, I still enjoy seeing your cards. I look forward to them! THANK you,
Charlotte Lucht-Quigley
I love your comment. Thank you! Miss you!
