I made this card for the sketch challenge at Freshly Made Sketches and the Just Add Leaves challenge at Just Add Ink.
I love this sketch and will be sure to use it again. For my card, I used a piece of First Edition DSP as the main panel and over-stamped it with a Penny Black stamp colored with markers. Once I'd stamped it, I used my sponge dauber and a touch of Calypso Coral ink to put a tiny bit of color to the flowers.
The ribbon embellishment uses Lucky Limeade ruffled ribbon stuck down with sticky strip, then some Calypso Coral baker's twine on top. It's finished with a brad.
Products used:
Stamps: Delicate Florals (Penny Black); Signature Greetings (PTI)
