Happy Friday! It's time for another sketch from
Sketch Frenzy Friday! This sketch is pretty user-friendly. I flipped it and then mirrored the image, so the sentiment is no longer at the lower left corner, it is now at the upper right corner.
I used all Stampin' Up! supplies for this challenge. And I have to say, I really like this card :)
This sketch is brought to us by
Tina Taves. I love a great sketch and Tina has really made this challenge a pleasure to be a part of. For your next stop on our blog tour, please stop by
Tammy B. blog.

I used three different stamp sets, but that was only because I wanted a pretty, feminine font for the sentiment. I used
Creative Elements for the flower and the sentiment tag. I used
Best Friends Forever for the leaves. The card base is Crumb Cake. The largest matt is Calypso Coral. I stamped on the First Edition DSP to help create a background that tied the floral arrangement to the card. I just love the crochet trim, but it seemed a bit 'light' and that it didn't look grounded to the card, so I layered a scrap piece Crumb Cake taffeta ribbon under the crochet trim. I tied a random SU! button onto the ribbon with some linen thread. I made a bow with the long length of thread I originally cut. I did the '
rock n roll' technique on my flower. I stamped the whole flower in Calypso Coral classic ink and then rolled the edges in Crumb Cake classic ink. I actually stamped the flower three times, and layered the different cut-outs with foam tape. I added some faux half-pearl jewels to keep that pretty, feminine look. And I finished the card with a few spritz of my home-made shimmer mist!

I really love how you did this card. I was looking at the ribbon trying to decide what you did since you said everything was SU. I really think that spices it up even more. Thanks for the inspiration.
