What a whirlwind week we had and thinking back nothing stood out as being extra eventful. Is it just me or are we all running around this time of year busy with everything and anything? I could not believe it when I checked my calendar and saw that it was Thanksgiving weekend the weekend after next. Wow! I thought I had at least a few more weeks *lol* I had better get a menu plan going and get that turkey!
When we are busy and on limited free time schedules Card Kits are the answer for sure! This week the 2 Sketches 4 You team worked with a fantastic company called Cupcards to Go who assemble the most adorable full and mini kits. The combination of Kits and Sketches *wink* certainly are super time saving and allow you to whip up a batch of cards for the Holidays and still leave you free time to watch shows from 2 months ago on your DVR!!!
We worked with product from the new soon to be released December Kit. Here are our sneaks...

This cards color combo is scrumptious! I looooove the simplicity of the textured craft, red twine, and beautiful snowflakes. This is such a wonderful holiday card Anni thank you for sharing it with all of us at 2S4Y! You can see more of Anni's stunning work on her blog:
