Who would not to receive a card with this greeting! I went to the CAS(e) this sketch for my inspiration.
Although I did not follow the sketch to the letter, I did let it be my launching point and that is what a sketch is about to me. I used a die cut of some leaves by Memory Box for my main element. The sentiment banner stamp is from My Favorite Things with the matching die.
Take notice of my background. I started coloring it by using a dot stencil and some Distress Stains. I used water to give the look of watercolors. After it was colored and dry, I took another stencil and embossed the paper using an embossing pad and my Cuttlebug. The texture is oh so cool.
Here is the CAS(e) this sketch.Thanks for visiting, Linda (lbpost)
