Welcome to this week's Creative Sketches Challenge! This week it's all about flowers and lace, as you can see in the sketch below. Fun challenge - come play along! You can view the Creative Sketches blog HERE, and all the instructions to download your challenge card are on the site.
I combined the 2 stamps sets, Nature Walk (saying and bee) and Field Flowers (flower and stem), for my card. I used the retired designer paper, Botanical Gazette for the background. I used a barely wet watercolor brush to pick up the color on the large flower image after I stamped it on a piece of Very Vanilla c/s using a Cherry Cobbler IP. Distressed the edges of the dp with my distress tool and added some Cherry Cobbler brads. I like how the card turned out; can't wait to see what you come up with! Thanks for stopping; here's the details on my card:
Stamps: Nature Walk, Field Flowers
Inks: Cherry Cobbler, Early Espresso, Old Olive
Papers: Very Vanilla, Early Espresso, Cherry Cobbler, Botanical Gazette DP
Accessories: Big Shot, Vintage Wallpaper EF, Watercolor Brush, Early Espresso Satin Ribbon, Cherry Cobbler Brads, Distressing Tool, Scallop Trim Border Punch, Round Tab Punch, Scissors, Sponge, Dimensionals, Paper Piercing Tool
I am so glad you stopped by to take a peek at my blog! I have had "stampin' fever" for over 14 years now and have loved every minute of it! It's a wonderfully contagious disease, but beware... once you catch it, there is no cure!
