Floral Frenzy Sketch

I got this set for Christmas and I'm so loving it. The sentiments are all perfect and my favorite flowers are daisies. I love gerbera daisies, but I really just love simple white daisies, so I decided to try out the Fresh Snow ink from Papertrey Ink to capture that look. WOW! It stamped so smoothly and left crisp images on both cardstock colors I used. I did use my embossing gun to heat set the images just to make sure they were dry before using them. Worked like a charm. The Script background is from TAC and is one of the many stamps on sale at the moment. It's only $3.98! I used Sketch Challenge 211 for the layout. Thanks for stopping by! I hope y'all have a fabulous weekend and stay warm. It's chilly here!!!

Stamps: Floral Frenzy (Papertrey Ink), Script background
Paper: Kraft, Chocolate Chip, Mellow Moss
Ink: Palette Burnt Umber, Fresh Snow (Papertrey Ink), VeraMagic Spanish Olive
Other: Chocolate polytwill ribbon, Men's Dew Drops, photo corner punch, Basic Grey Ambrosia button
