This card turned out so much better than I thought it would when I designed it in my head! That big square space actually had me a little stumped! So when that happens I usually start looking through my stash of stamps for tried-and-true ones that make me smile. I found this Funky Florals set and stamped them in the colors of the Paper Players challenge. I added a small grungy stamp behind the flowers to provide some contrast to the white-on-white layers and found a slim vertical sentiment that tucked in around the flowers perfectly.
Thanks for stopping by! My Freshly Made Sketches teammates have made some gorgeous cards to inspire you to play along with us. I hope we'll see you in the gallery!
