Freshly Made Sketches 226!

Halfway through the work-week!  Yay!  And being Wednesday, it's time for a new sketch from your friends at Freshly Made Sketches.  This week our sketch comes to you from Rita!

This is the second day in a row that I managed to use some of my DSP stash on my card.  I made a little pledge to myself the other day to use some of my supplies a bit more often and here I am using it again!  I tend to gravitate to the more subtle patterns and I particularly like this one because it is allows me to stamp the sentiment on it and still be able to see it.  The colors for my card come from the latest challenge at Can You Case It.


Thanks for stopping by and I hope you can play along with us at Freshly Made Sketches this week.  Be sure to stop on by and check our the amazing cards from the design team as well.  Loads of inspiration there!

Supplies
Stamps:  Modern Blooms (My Favorite Things)
Paper:  Sweet Tooth (My Favorite Things); Daffodil Delight (SU)
Ink:  Tempting Turquoise, Basic Black (SU)
Accessories:  Blueprints 15, Pierced Rectangle STAX (My Favorite Things); Leaves die (Penny Black); crochet thread

So soft and pretty! Love the pop of the blue flower! And oh do I have DSP that needs to be used! I am trying to do the same thing.....and use it more.....even if it is just to decorate the envelope flap!

This is so pretty! The pop of blue that is the flower really packs a punch. Love it! And go you for using your patterned paper. Mine just languishes. I've now resorted to sparingly buying 6x6 pads of dots, stripes and other such patterns. No more flower paper for me!

This is stunning, Jen. Love the colors and the texture on the ribbon, yet delicate look, makes it even more gorgeous. So, so pretty.
