I hope it's visible in the photo but I used some embossing paste and a stencil to take the place of the oval shape on the sketch. I wanted something subtle so that I could layer a big sentiment on there - and play along with the latest challenge at The Paper Players. I surrounded the edges of the card stock with different color dots in a bokeh-like design. The sentiment was die cut in both yellow and black - with the black just barely showing. I love how this came out!
The challenge this week at Less is More is "alphabet." I think this qualifies because I've got letters on my card. Not sure if they mean sequential letters, so we'll see!
Thanks for stopping by. And check out the inspiration from the design team at CAS(E) This Sketch. I'm sure you will be inspired to play along with us!

Love your design. The yellow is so pretty and really pops! Thanks for sharing at Less is More!
Gorgeous! Yes I see your stencil and paste - just the right amount of pizzazz! Thanks for playing along with us at The Paper Players.
This looks absolutely fantastic! I love the dimension and the bright pops of colour. So clean and crisp, and very appealing in colour palette/layout. Gorgeous. Thanks so much for playing along with us at Less is More :)
I must use yellow more cos I love this! The touch of black behind your hello really makes it pop too.
