Hi all! It's a new day and time for a new sketch from Freshly Made Sketches! This week our hostess and sketch designer is Cécile and, as usual, her design has me wishing I had her design instinct. I tried my best to channel my inner Cécile, so here goes!
I started by using a watercolor background stamp in a pale pink topped with a grungy image stamped in one of my favorite grays (Smokey Shadow). Then I added the square die-cut and a couple of pink flowers. I toyed with adding a small leaf in a bright green, but it looked to busy to me so I left the flowers alone. I tucked in a small Verve sentiment to the right. You can't go wrong with a Verve sentiment!
Thanks for stopping by! My amazing teammates at Freshly Made Sketches have got some fabulous cards to WOW you so be sure to check them out!
