This is the color inspiration provided by the Play Date Cafe:
This is the sketch provided by CardPatterns:

I went into TJ Maxx and found these cute little boxed cards for $4.99. I brought them home and took the first card out and cut it up into 16 one inch squares. I matted them onto a white piece of card stock that I (of course) border punched. Tied a fancy bow, added a sentiment and that's all folks!
Have a great day and thanks for visiting!
**Update: This card was chosen as the card of the week at Card Patterns Sketch blog! The week of July 25th I'm going to be guest designer so come check out the challenge and play along!
