Celebrate Squared

Hi and welcome to another fabulous challenge at Freshly Made Sketches!  This week, Narelle, our resident Queen of Layers, is our hostess and she came up with this sketch:

The first card I made using this sketch will never see the light of day :)  Let's just say, it looked so much better in my head!  After a couple of hours, I finally gave up and this card came together in about 30 minutes.

I white-embossed the text image from Papillon onto some watercolor paper before sponging some distress inks onto each panel.  I then cut them with a rounded square die.  The sentiment is stacked about 4 high from black cardstock.  

Thanks for visiting!  Be sure to check out the fabulous creations from the rest of the design team.
