Hello stamping friends! We've got a great new sketch for you at Freshly Made Sketches and this week our design is brought to you by Karren. The sketch looked like it had layers to me so I dug into my stash of patterned paper and made a valentine.
The color challenge at Color Hues helped to inspire my valentine. Kraft + {insert color here} is always a favorite combination of mine. The contrast is fun and so versatile. In this case the vertical layers on the sketch lent themselves perfectly to a couple of different pieces of patterned paper which created the perfect background to my heart. I added some gold Wink of Stella to the "love" die cut, but it looks very blah in this picture. In real life it's quite zazzy!
Thanks for stopping by! I hope you can join us at Freshly Made Sketches. 🩷
