Create Happiness

Hi and welcome!  Today's Freshly Made Sketch was designed by Cecile Ribon and I have to admit I went a big rogue and miniaturised and re-layered the sketch to make my card.

 

My original thought when I saw the sketch was to use washi for the strips, but then I had the idea of these miniature dies from MFT.  I was going to use the Copic markers dies for the strips but then couldn't work out the "leaves" from the sketch.  So I went with the paint brush, tubes and palette which sort of matches the sketch but in miniature plus the strips are on top.

I purchased the Colour Cubes last week and while I'm still waiting on the physical product I do have the PDF and I used that to come up with my colour scheme.  It's refreshing to step outside my normal colours for a change! For anyone interested, I used colour palette 098 for this card.

Everything except the silver foil elements was cut from white cardstock and coloured/shaded with Copic markers.  Once it was assembled I arranged the elements to as closely match the sketch as possible.  Because everything was so much smaller than the sketch, I added a layer of cardstock behind the elements onto which I stamped the sentiment.

I finished with some pearls and a clay heart.  Thanks so much for visiting.  Please check out the fabulous cards made by the rest of the design team.
