Camo Leaf

 Welcome!  Today's card uses the latest sketch from Freshly Made Sketches and this week it's my turn to be sketch hostess.  Here's the card I came up with, which was completely different to what I had envisaged when I designed the sketch!

A few weeks ago, I received the Detail Leaf suite of products from Pink Fresh Studio and wanted to have a play.  Rather than go with the colours in the packaging example, I went with four different greens - not realising I would end up with a camo look!  The leaf was firstly hot-foiled with a pewter foil and then stenciled with the green inks before being die-cut with the co-ordinating die.

For the background, rather than use circles, I decided to use hexagons.  I found a cardstock that matched that lightest green, but not one that matched the darkest green (Spruce), so I decided to colour white cardstock with a direct-to-paper technique with the Spruce ink.

I finished with a stamped and die-cut sentiment.

Thanks so much for visiting.  I hope you'll check out the DT cards and find time to make a card using my sketch.
