Welcome to the new sketch from the team at Freshly Made Sketches, where this week our hostess is Cecile Ribon. She has come up with a fun sketch for us and here's my card:
After completing the Crushing on Cardstock class at Online Card Classes, I decided to play with some different cardstock techniques for my three panels. The top panel is faux suede, the centre panel is embossed with a 3D embossing folder and the bottom panel is a tone-on-tone embossed panel.
The leaf is made from alcohol ink on acetate and die-cut.
Thanks for visiting. The DT have some gorgeous cards so I hope you'll check them out.
