Hi friends! We've got a fabulous new sketch for you at Freshly Made Sketches this week. Our hostess is Jacquie and there's so much you can do with her design!
The background on this card is wide washi tape. It's a bit hard to work with but super pretty in real life. After I added it to the background I stuck a piece of it to a scrap piece of cardstock and fussy cut a couple of the flowers and leaves to add some interest to the top layer of the card.
I'm late posting my card for the challenge because I completely messed it up! Usually I make my card on Sunday so that I have a couple of days to tweak, photograph, and edit before I do my blog post. This week I was under a time crunch because I had a work meeting on Tuesday that meant I wasn't going to get home until very late so I wanted to have the card done and posted on my blog by Monday.
So, the card was done on Sunday and I start composing my blog post on Monday when I realized that I forgot one layer on the card. I had no time to make a revision so I thought I'd be out for the week. But it bugged me that I had made such a stupid mistake so on Wednesday night I peeled off the flowers and sentiment from the "wrong" card, added the missing layer, and added the flowers and sentiment back again so that the card followed the sketch. Whew!
I am 100% sure that my Freshly Made Sketches teammates didn't have trouble like this with their own cards! I hope you can check out our challenge and join us!

Whatever redo you had to do left you with a lovely card! This is wonderful, Jen!
This is a fabulous redo, Jen! The fussy cut flowers are especially gorgeous.
You totally rocked the redo - and I loved the first one too! I can't believe that's washi tape. Gorgeous.
This card is gorgeous Jen! I love those flowers! They're just beautiful and I love that sentiment! Don't worry - I've messed up the last two blog posts. My goal is to remember this week!
Sorry you had to revamp but the end result is gorgeous!
I truly love everything about this stunning creation!
Such an awesome floral card! This Washi tape is gorgeous and I love how you fussy cut some elements of it to add them on the focal panel.
Oh wow! This is just gorgeous! Love that washi you've used.
