This week our sketch comes to you from Karren. It is the kind of sketch that inspires just about any combination of color, pattern, or texture. I combined her sketch with the colors at Cupcake Inspirations to come up with this.
Apparently a while ago I used the stencil with some sponged color before using it on today's card. I don't think I cleaned it very good because traces of yellow showed up on my embossing paste. I love how it gives a bit of subtle color to the rays so I decided to use. Luckily yellow is one of the colors I was supposed to use!
Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to check out the inspiration from our Freshly Made Sketches design team. I hope we'll see you in the gallery!

This is beautiful!
If you hadn't said anything, I would have thought the yellow rays were part of your design :) Fabulous card and a wonderful use of the sketch.
That embossing paste adds such a cool effect (and even cooler with the yellow tint). Love that gorgeous butterfly too!
This card makes me smile!! Your clean up mishap is a delightful mistake!!
I love that the yellow in the embossing....it totally is a happy accident because it is perfect behind the butterfly. Great take on the sketch.
Yes, that yellow in the embossing was just supposed to happen! Wonderful card, Jen!

This card makes me smile Jen! I love that butterfly and the gorgeous background! So pretty!
The little bits of yellow on the embossing look great and are perfect with the lovely green at the bottom, Jen!!!! And what a beautiful and wonderfully delicate butterfly that is - perfect against the embossed bg!!! Such a beautiful card!!!!
Oh my gosh, that couldn't have been a better accident! Those yellow rays are one of the design elements that make this card distinct. Love the butterfly and sentiment, too!
Those yellow highlights are just gorgeous Jen - something I would never be able to achieve even if I tried 20 times to get it - it has such wonderful effect.
Wow, another stunning CAS card! I absolutely love the background, gorgeous! Thanks for sharing with us over at Cupcake Inspirations!
