CAS(E) this Sketch Guest Designer

Hello my crafting friends!


Well, you probably know that I love to play along at the CAS(E) this Sketch. Their sketches are so wonderful, versatile and challenging! I also love to visit their gallery since it is always  full of beautiful cards and enormous amount of inspiration. Just love the challenge. So, you might also guess that when Chrissy emailed me and asked IF I liked to be their Guest Designer I screamed so load that my girls thought that I had hurt myself. LOL! Yes, of course! So here is my card for this challenge.



Here is this week's sketch:
