Arigato Flowers

Today's Jacksonbelle Embellishments Challenge is a fabulous sketch provided by Lynda! You know how much I love sketches. This one has some great little panels - a perfect way to use up some of those scraps!!! I hope you play along with us this week. When uploading your card to SCS, please us the keyword JBE049 .


I thought this layout was perfect for a little thank you card. It measures 3.5 x 5.5! I started by picking out some scraps from my Basic Grey Boxer pad. I love that paper. The colors are so bold and can truly be used all year round! It would be perfect for Independence Day cards; which is right around the corner. Gosh this year is flying by! Next, I stamped the Inkadinkado Branch of Flowers image on Very Vanilla cardstock. I colored the flowers in with Koh-i-noor pencils, then very lightly went over all of them with Royal Red Shimmerz.
Sentiment comes from the A Muse set called Sushi. I thought that the paper with the stamp had an Asian feel to it. To finish it off, I tied on some Kraft Taffeta and added a row of Men's Dew Drops to the bottom corner. I can't wait to see how y'all use this sketch.
