The Sweet Stop 165 American Cutie

Hey everyone!! I hope everyone had a wonderful week.  We just finished up swim lessons so for awhile at least we can get back to no type of "set" schedule.  I love having my kids home but I do miss having those few hours of quite time a week to craft.  I can't even believe the 4th of July is almost here, where is the year going?
I had fun making my card for The Sweet Stop Sketch SSS165 this week.  I got a tad carried away with my layers... I can tell you I won't be mailing this card, it would cost a fortune:)
I fell in love with this image from Saturated Canary called To the Lake and thought it would make a great Americana kind of card.

 I found this paper from The Paper Studio and knew the weathered deck would work perfectly with my image. The sentiment is from C.C. Designs Summer Sentiments and the  Border punch is  Die-namics Zig Zag Border. I did have to change the shape of the oval on the sketch because the size I had just did not give me enough room to color the way I like to.
