CAS-ual Friday Sketch Challenge
This week it's a sketch challenge over at CAS-ual Fridays. I tend to like sketches, most times, only some times they do pigeon hole me, but then I know that that sketch is not for me. With this one I took a bit of liberty and flipped it on it's side and moved the sentiment a little, I'm happy with it. And I will also enter it in this weeks' Simon Says Stamp challenge which is "Anything Goes".
It's also another one of my minimal stamping cards. I wanted to use some of the scraps on my desk and that's just what I did.
Paper: cardstock (PTI); designer paper (My Mind's Eye)
Ink: Versafine Onyx Black
Stamps: Unity
Other: string (recycled); MFT flower die; dimensional adhesive
Nothing to explain really. I think that paper and the flower is what makes the card. This is when I love double sided cardstock as the papers typically compliment each other so well. Don't you just love that flower, it's from this Die-namics Pretty Posies die. It has three different size flowers and three different size centres.
I must say, I do like this card, a lot.
Wishing you an awesome day!
(I cannot wait for Halloween to be over, way too much candie!!!)
Oh boy, tomorrow is November...!!!

I like this card too Brenda and especially from scraps!
I agree - we were giving out candy to the kids yesterday at work and I found my hand in the bowl several times! Tough to resist when it's right in front of your nose! Love your beautiful card today - the layered flower is perfect! :)
Love the splashes of color against the simplicity of the overall card. You are right...the paper and flower make the card and I really like the color pairing.....
I agree with you - this flower is adorable as well as your card!
Wow do I love this one, B! Love how you used the flower on this, papers, colors the whole shebang!! I am missing not getting into my room this week!!

Brenda, you have scored once again! I love the way these papers go so well together and the vintage-y feel. I love your take on the sketch, too - you improved it!
