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

Freshly Made Sketches #631

Hey there!  I'm so glad you dropped by.

The sketch at Freshly Made Sketches was just begging for a large flower and I had just the one.

Majestic Bloom from Altenew.  I didn't use the outline, just stamped the layers in the darkest three of the Enchanted Garden set.  Lime is a good compliment to purple so the leaves are from the Spring Bouquet, all from Altenew.  The background is the Double Striped Card Front die from C9.  The sentiment from Sunny Studio is in the darkest purple, and not as crooked as it appears in the photo.  😞
