Freshly Made Sketches #593

I'm sure I'm not the only one who saw Jennifer McGuire's pop-up card video and thought that it would work perfectly for Karren's challenge at Freshly Made Sketches.  


First I went looking for a die that would be wide enough to cover the bridge and found it in Honey Bee's Dogwood.  Then I looked for some patterned paper and thought this lacy look from Honey Bee would go well with the dogwood and make a nice anniversary card.  The stem is colored with Zigs and the flowers are accented with colored pencils. I doubled it up but it still needed something more for stabiity so I added the label die from Altenew cut from the same patterned paper, layered and stamped with a sentiment from Hero Arts. 

I hope to make a few more of these when I have more options for dies to bridge the gap and more patterned paper to decorate with. 

Thanks for dropping by.  Have a great week!

I think you left just enough space for that pretty bird when he arrives, Bobby! But that dogwood is gorgeous on its own! A beautiful card!
