Sketch n Stash #66

Hi folks,

Well I FINALLY cracked open my Bo Bunny Gabrielle Collection pack that I picked up from Tina's Scrapbooking Creations back in May at our Crop for the Cure. I figured I had hoarded it long enough and I needed to make a birthday card for a dear friend of mine and wanted to use something I had not yet used before and was pretty.

I actually wound up making FOUR cards as I REALLY liked the sketch that I used (this week's layout from the Sketch 'n Stash challenge blog). You will notice I didn't add any embellies. When I do floral cards I prefer to let the image stand on its own.

Here are the other three cards I made:

The two flower stamps are a couple that I picked up at Heather's Stamping Haven the last time I participated in one of Tanya's card classes.

card details:

• finished size: 5.5 x 5.5 inches
• stamped images: Spring Flower and Curly Flower from Heather's Stamping Haven. Coloured with Copic markers (YG00, YG01, YG61, YG63, YG67, YR000, YR00, YR02)
• sentiments: Verve Wordy Bird, Big Wish, Amazing Wishes, Love Story
• patterned papers: Bo Bunny Gabrielle
• kraft cardstock
• Spellbinders: Petite Circles

additional challenges for this card:

• Clear it Out Challenge: Anything Goes
• Kraft Journal: My Favourite Things (I love using floral images on cards - and of course my Verve sentiment stamps and Copic Markers)

Anyways, that's it for me today. 

I'm taking a much needed break from work next week and hope to relax by doing WHATEVER THE HECK I WANT!!!! A much shorter than usual summer vacation for me - only one week instead of the usual four but long overdue and very much needed. I may decide that "whatever" is just sleeping!

Hope you all end your week on a high note!
