A Tip from Barb
This is the perfect card sketch for when you need a quick and easy card. If the rectangular cardstock is too small or large for your focal image, simply adjust the cardstock sizes as necessary. And if you don’t have a circle punch, you can easily replace this circle with a square or another rectangle. This card sketch is very flexible!
