Freshly Made Sketches #694

I wasn't sure I'd get a card made for Freshly Made Sketches this week but piece by piece it came together.  


There were several reworkings of my idea but Peony Dream from Altenew was my main focus.  It's cut from white and colored with Altenw Ink in Sunray and Chamomile  with the leaves in Firefly.  The sentiment from Hero Arts is embossed in white on dark brown.  I haven't used my C9 Double Stripe Card Front in a while and it wanted to be part of this card.  I'm not really crazy about it - the leaves look disconnected - but sketches often do that to me.  It's called a challenge for a reason.  lol

Now, I ask you, what's not to love about this wonderful card? A beautiful bloom, fresh green leaves, a fun cover panel and I LOVE the brown sentiment strips, Bobby! I also love that you found the chance to play with FMS this week, my friend! THX!

I love your card and pretty peony! The colors are great and your layout looks like a perfect match to the sketch, in my humble book!
