The Countdown Continues ~ Day 18~Sketch 18

I'm getting excited. Real excited. We have 14 days left until my birthday. AND my counter recently went over 15,000! Normally I'd post blog candy at this point, but I already am giving away everything but the kitchen sink. hehehe (Speaking of Kitchen Sink, have you seen the new line of stamps from the company by that name? Check this review out!)
Anyway...I posted that review yesterday in hopes that you all would start getting excited too. This basket is overflowing. I'm telling you.... it's going to cost a fortune to mail. You really should see the other half of the loot. WoW!
But, on to the day's sketch so I can get stamping on tomorrow's sketch!!
Here is my card. I made this specifically for a holiday card challenge from Samm:

Card Recipe:
Stamps~ All Year Cheer 3, Sanded, Linen, Rose Leaves (Rubber Stampede)
Ink~ Choc Chip, Cappuccino Delight K Pad

Paper~ Confetti Cream, Close to Cocoa, Choc Chip, 2 Basic Grey "Mellow" DPs
Accessories~ Horizontal Slot Punch, SU Ruffled Choc Ribbon, Linen thread

I LOVE how it turned out! I used my new "Mellow" Basic Grey papers I was so fortunate to have won from the one and only Julia Stainton! I would love to have more of these papers. I love Basic Grey!
Here is the easy peasy sketch for today:

And today I add to the loot 14 Cellos in 3 different sizes. I've seen so many great treat and gift bags done with these cellos so I wanted to add an assortment to my birthday treasure box!

There are 2 large gusseted bags (5x3x11); 5 small flat bags (3x5); and 7 large flat (6x8).

That's all from me today. I've got some deadlines today and Katie has an appointment and then I have to go grocery shopping...bleh!
Hugs to You ALL!
