Floral Bucket

It's Freshly Made Sketches day and our hostess this week is Amy O'Neill.  I made this card using some NBUS which just arrived a week or so ago.

I was planning on putting the bucket of flowers onto a vellum oval, but I decided to leave it as is, so my card doesn't toally match the sketch, but close enough, I think.  The die-cut elements were cut from coloured cardstock and then ink-blended for added dimension.  After I assembled all the pieces, I set to work on my background.  Onto a card-sized panel of patterned grid paper, I roughly stamped a text stamp, deliberately missing bits.  I adhered that to the card base then added a strip of woodgrain for the "ground" for my bucket to stand on.

I then went through my pre-foiled sentiments and found this simple birthday sentiment.

Thanks for visiting! The design team have some gorgeous cards as usual, so I hope you'll check them out.
