Hi all and happy Wednesday! Today I have another card made for the CAS (Clean and Simple)
Autumn 09 Design Team Search. The sketch challenge is to make a card based off of
this card. Here is my take...
Very simple. I wanted to keep the focus on the flower. The flower was cut from my Blossom Nestabilities, I embossed the largest blossom with swiss dots. The remaining smaller blossoms I crinkled up, then layered the blossoms together and held them in place with a button and thread.
Yesterday
Blog Hop fun got me all excited about fall, so now I'm off to go bake banana bread! Mmmmmmm! Thanks for stopping by today and have a wonderful day!
