My card for this week's challenge at Freshly Made Sketches has a few stamps on it that I haven't used in a while. Our sketch is designed by Kim and I love all the layered shapes on it. I replicated those layers with stamps and a few flowers popped up on foam tape.
When I sat down to make this card I went through my stamps and came across SU's Off the Grid. I love that stamp and for some reason I had forgotten all about it. I decided it would make a great little base layer image. Then I dug out another SU set that I've had for ages and hadn't used lately and added the flowers and stem. A little sentiment in a hand-written style plus a few enamel dots and I was done! Easy peasy.
The colors for my card come from the latest challenge at Sunday Stamps. The inspiration photo is so beautiful with these vibrant colors.
Only a few more days until the long weekend! Yay! I hope to do some puttering in the garden this weekend because the weeds have already come a-calling! Thanks for stopping by and be sure to head on over to the Freshly Made Sketches blog to see the inpsiration from the rest of the design team. I hope you've got some time to join us in the gallery!
