This week at Freshly Made Sketches, we've got a great sketch from Cindy. It's got great classic lines and a spot for any shape that tickles your fancy!
I used the red and pink colors from Dynamic Duos but decided against the obvious Valentine suggested by the colors in favor of some funky flowers. I found some Pretty in Pink DSP in my stash and I combined it with some embossed stripes on the bottom portion of the card. I stamped the biggest flower in Real Red then stamped off to do the smallest one. It's amazing to me how much stamping off dilutes the color because the smaller one looks quite pink to me.
Ok, that's it for me, but be sure to head on over to Freshly Made Sketches and check out the inspiration from the DT!
Supplies:
Stamps: Great Friend (SU), Funky Florals (Papertrey Ink)
Accessories: Stripes EF (SU), Chevron Stripes Die-Namics (My Favorite Things)
The funky flowers work perfectly!! And your little zig zag is a perfect touch!
