Freshly Made Sketches 473

Hi everyone!  It's Wednesday so that means it's time for a new sketch challenge at Freshly Made Sketches!  This week our hostess is Amy and her sketch is fantastic!



My little watercolored background panel is one that I have been pushing around my craft desk for - I don't know - years!  I can't remember what project I originally made it for but whatever it was I had this smallish bit left over that I never threw out.  All this time I've been moving this piece from one side of my desk to another thinking it was too pretty to get rid of and finally I was proved right!  (On a side note, I think I need some kind of container for scraps)!  I added a horizontal strip of vellum then cut the sentiment from black glitter paper on my Scan N Cut.  

Thanks for stopping by!  My fellow teammates at Freshly Made Sketches have got some great cards to inspire you to play along with us!

Supplies
Paper:  Whisper White, Pool Party, vellum (Stampin' Up!); Distress Watercolor (Tim Holtz); Black Foil Paper (Recollections)
Accessories:  Bold  Alpha Lower svg (The Ton)

    So glad you finally used that little scrap of watercolor as it made for a very pretty background. Like the CAS look of your card.

    Well now, I think you need to scroll back through your blog and find the original card that resulted in the creation of this watercolored panel :) Such a wonderful card and it's so cool to see that keeping these pieces does pay off in the end.

    What a terrific card Jen! So simple and yet so striking! These bold black letters look fabulous against the pastel background.
