Happy Anniversary - Wednesday Sketch Challenge 542

Hi Friends!

Welcome back for another Wednesday Sketch Challenge from My Favorite Things.

If you have seen the last few cards that I have posted, you may have noticed that I'm on a real floral kick as of late...and none of them have had any Copic colouring...can you believe that?! I have really been enjoying exploring the non-colouring side of card making and growing as a card maker as a result. Honestly, that truly is what these challenges are for...to inspire us to create, explore and step outside of our crafty box.

I followed the sketch pretty closely using the floral die cut elements from the Box Card Bouquet Die-namics to create one of my favourite flowers that we grow on our property here in Canada...the Hydrangea. 

I die cut out the flowers, ink blended them using Distress Inks and then dry embossed them using a stylist tool to give the flowers shape. I then stacked them on top of each other creating beautiful and colourful Hydrangeas.

I decided to turn this card into an Anniversary card and selected a sentiment from my new favourite set, "Itty Bitty Basics" and then cut out the banner shape using the Itty Bitty Strips Die-namics.

I cant wait to see what you create!

 

Always follow your creative heart
