Today I decided to go with a sketch for Freshly made Sketches. It's been quite a while since I've done one there and I might have gone a bit overboard with the embossing folder, but.......................
Cute and simple sketch. If you love making clean and simple cards then this is the challenge for you.
I used the Petals folder and colored it by using my brayer on the background side. Try both sides of your folders, you never know what you might discover.
I used one of the Host sets in the new annual catalog for this, Gift of Love, but the sentiment is from Weather Together, which came just in time as I was finishing up my card.
I used the Layering Ovals and sponged some color on the outside of the oval.
I hope you like. Thanks for stopping.
Colors for this are: Whisper White Elegant Eggplant and Mint Macaron. The flower is watercolored onto Watercolor paper. But it is a 2 step stamp so you don't have to.
Well Lynn I love the background you created! Looks like stone.....beautifully done and a perfect backdrop for those gorgeous flowers! Glad you joined us at FMS!
ReplyDeleteReally love this card, Lynn! The brayering on the backside of that folder cast it in a whole new light for me, so now it's a "gotta have", instead of a "maybe". Excellent coloring on the image, too!
ReplyDeleteNothing overboard about that pretty panel! Did you just ink the folder? Looks beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful embossed background and a gorgeous card! Thanks so much for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches.
