Forest Friends is a cute, inexpensive set that I just had to have when it first came out in a minicatalogue. I liked the stylized tree and the cute animals, particularly the deer. I mean, who wouldn't like that cute Bambi face?
It is the set I thought about when I saw the new Verve sketch (June #4) on SCS. The Top Note die was just perfect to recreate the sketch and I knew the oval sentiment from the new Happiest Birthday Wishes would be perfect as well. The color combo is an older ColourQ challenge that I really liked but hadn't had the chance to use yet. The white scallop rectangle is an old Love Note die from last year's minicatalogue.
Reminder: All of the large grosgrain ribbons are leaving the catalogue, so if you like that width and type of ribbon, don't forget to stock up before it leaves for good.
