Paper Pretties

Time for another great sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches. The sponsor this week is Paper Pretties and I used the lovely 'Crocus' digi image to create my card. I'm still 'Thinking Spring', even though it is only February.


The embossing folder is from Sizzix, sentiment is Darcies, ribbon A. C. Moore, banner die from Taylored Expressions and silk flowers from my stash. The image was colored with Copic markers.

The challenge at Paper Players this week is to create a "Flowers" card. I am submitting this card to that challenge.

This is the lovely sketch that was designed by Theresa.


Everyone loves comments, so please stop by the DT blogs and leave them a little 'love' and thank them for their constant inspiration. When you visit the Tuesday Morning Sketches blog...just click on the name above the card and this will take you to their blogs. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Back to creating cards in my Butterfly Garden.

Your card is as gorgeous as ever. The flowers are beautiful. Love the embossing and the flourish bling on the bottom. It's beautiful.
