The current sketch 008
at I {Heart} Card Sketches is a fab layout and I can see me using it again.
I opted not to use the circle element as it covered my pretty flowers and we
can’t be having that can we?
The image is a digi from Mami Doodles called Happy Blooms,
I just adore the happy smiley faces on the flowers , they are just so cheerful,
just like sunflowers are to me J The image was coloured in ages ago
with Promarkers so it was nice to actually make a card with it.
I covered the card blank with a sheet
of paper by Fancy Pants that was from a magazine freebie. I used more freebie
papers for the yellow squares and matted onto some scrap orange card. The
ribbon is recycled from a box of chocolates, the embossed flowers are Prima’s
with Craftwork Cards Candi dots. Finally I added a sentiment from my stash and
some small glittery butterfly stickers I have had for more years than I care to
remember…..
Having just come back from a day out
at Birmingham Botanical Gardens I can honestly say colourful flowers make me
happy, especially the nice fragrant ones like Jasmine, and we saw some orchids
that were just divine, some really gorgeous little birdies in an aviary and
about 3 different wedding parties. They have an amazing array of roses so I
think we shall have to go back in the summer when they are in bloom.
