I was playing with my Best of Flowers set and thought I'd give this little bouquet a try. I tried stamping it in black and brown to color and wasn't happy with that. So I got out some markers and inked up the bouquet with them. The results really made me happy!
It just so happens that two of my favorite challenge sites have a very similar sketch. And I thought they worked well with this little design.

Pixies Crafty Workshop only requires the use of snippets on a card. The design piece and mat are both from snippets. So glad I can play again.

ReplyDeleteLOVE how the flowers came out! They're just gorgeous!!! All those layers are just yummy!
ReplyDeleteOoh Aah, I get to leave the first comment on this gorgeousness!!! Hooray! I think your pastel markers on this little bouquet was plumb inspiration. It says "Spring fresh" all the way. Loved your EF with this one too. This is just lovely & soft, and truly looks like spring flowers. TFS

ReplyDeleteAt first, I thought the flowers were from an older, retired SU set whose name escapes me at the moment. It had lots of flowers in it and some sentiments. Ring any bells?
