Sketchbook Saturday Challenge #49
Just getting this done in the nick of time... This was such an unusual sketch, that I just had to play along with Sketchbook Saturday, but when I started out, I had in mind a bunch of stitched vines, maybe some 3D flowers - and my card turned out to be the complete opposite! CAS is definitely not my usual style, but I'm really pleased with how it turned out. I stamped the flowers up the left side in bamboo ink, then masked off the top and bottom of the card, leaving about a 2 1/2" strip. I lightly sponged bamboo ink all over the exposed area, and then overstamped Universal Backgrounds in desert sand. A little knotted organdy ribbon, and I was done:
