This card is a sample for Cindy's "it's a sketch" challenge (FTTC52A), over on the Flourishes Newsletter blog!! Please check out the Flourishes Anniversary Celebration post to find out how to play along!
For this card, I am using the Waterlilies set! I stamped it with palette black ink and then colored it with copics. I then sponged the image panel with scattered straw, tattered rose and walnut stain distress inks. The DP used on the four back panels (which were cut out using the labels 1 Nestabilities) and the base panel is from Basic Grey's Porcelain DP package. To finish off the card, I added some brown grosgrain ribbon along with the sentiment.
Thanks so much for visiting today!!
