The beautiful colors this week at Pals Paper Arts were calling me as was the sketch at Fusion. I was pretty sure that I had some Pear Pizzazz DSP hiding in my stash and after searching for about 15 minutes I finally found it. I wish someone could tell me why my stash of patterned paper never seems to get any smaller!
I gave the white layer a spritz of color then inked up the floral stamp in black. I love how the color is soft and imperfect. The button was an afterthought because I forgot the little star element on the sketch. I tried not to make it look too out of place and added some scrunched up thread behind it so that it was a little more interesting. I think it may be a little hard to see in the photo but the vertical layer on the left of the sketch is actually a long line of black embossing paste on my card. Boy, I love that stuff!
Thanks for stopping by!
