Protea Bunch

Hi all and welcome to this week's challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches where our sketch hostess this week is Jen Mitchell.  I sort of covered the sketch with the floral image, but it is there underneath! 

This gorgeous protea image is from a new stamp set from Paper Rose Studio.  I absolutely love protea flowers and the first house I bought had several growing in the garden, because it was very sandy soil.  Unfortunately, this house is on different soil and I doubt protea plants would grow here.

Anyway, I stamped and coloured the image with Copics and then used my Scan n Cut to cut it out.  I wanted to stick with the blue-green shades for the leaves so I used the coloured image to choose some matching papers from Memory Box, which I die-cut with the Embossed Edge Rectangle dies to add some interest.

Thanks so much for visiting.  I hope you'll check out the wonderful cards made by the rest of the design team.
