Freshly Made Sketches 8

I don't mind saying that I had a bit of a tough time this week with our Freshly Made Sketch.

I was indecisive about a theme, and a color combo.  I started out with a base of Crumb Cake then waffled about what other colors I wanted to use.  Then I stumbled on the Inkspirations color challenge and liked the colors enough that I wanted to use them for this sketch.

Then I waffled some more before I decided to use my brand new Stripes embossing folder and ink up Triple Treat Flower for the first time.

I've seen some people ink up the embossing folder with a brayer before embossing the cardstock, which creates a nice effect, but I was too afraid to try it.  I had already waffled enough with this card and I didn't want to attempt something I'd never done before in case it came out horrible and I had to start again!

But on the plus side, I love this flower!  How awesome is it that there is a punch for each segment so you can easily create a flower made from multiple colors!

Now don't forget to pay a visit to our awesome design team and our special featured designer Holly Endress.  Then head on over to Freshly Made Sketches and link up your creation!
