Thank You Card

I received some wonderful goodies from Kat, and I wanted to make a thank you to send.

Here is my card: 

 I didn't like the brown CS (SU! Chocolate Chip) just plain, so I embossed the outside with brown EP.

Here is a closeup of the ribbon (My Mind's Eye "Madison Avenue") and the flower (Mulberry Paper).

 Here's a view from the top, so you can see the inside:

I used some of the things that Kimm sent in the candy I won from her (thanks, Kimm!). I just love the "Madison Avenue" line from My Mind's Eye. It's SO pretty!


I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
*Stamp Something -- Something with Thanks (ends Dec 2)
*Paper Playtime #26 -- Thank You (ends Nov 28)
*Raise the Bar #45 -- Grateful (ends Dec 4)
*The Sisterhood of Crafters -- Things to be Thankful For (Ends Nov 23)
*Simon Says Stamp -- Sparkle (Ends Nov 23) -- The brown dots are glitter, and there is glitter around the punch with the bird on it. I also spritzed the brown cs with shimmer mist.

I hope you are gearing up for a wonderful Thanksgiving! I am beginning to realize that I am not half as prepared as I thought I was (oops!). Guess I'll be running to the grocery later today...

Have a wonderful day!

I came across this Sketch Challenge at BasicGrey Challenge Blog:

I decided to give it a try, and here is what I came up with:
