Freshly Made Sketches 95

This week at Freshly Made Sketches Narelle, she of the lovely layers, is our hostess.  The sketch she designed this week is one that you are going to love!  It's got her signature layers and a design that can be interpreted a number of different ways!



I made my card using some of the brand new SU colors Baked Brown Sugar and Coastal Cabana.  But I've got to tell you that when I first started putting this card together I thought it lacked something.  The colors were pretty together but were definitely missing something.  So that's when I got the bright idea to add layers of black.  And wow, what a pop that gives!  The flower and sentiment are from one of my faves Awesome Blossom and I love how they look stamped in these colors.  

There's no surprise that this week the lovely ladies at Freshly Made Sketches have totally rocked this sketch so be sure to run on over there and check them out.  I hope you can join us in the gallery!

Supplies:
Stamps:  Awesome Blossom (The Alley Way Stamps)
Accessories:  Natural Trim ribbon (SU); kraft vintage button (Papertrey Ink); baker's twine

Totally beautiful Jen! I love the addition of the Basic Black to really show off the Baked Brown Sugar and Coastal Cabana (it's a great colour combo that I may have to CASE!). ps. couldn't help myself with a layered sketch :)
