Tsunamirose Vintage Shop Design Team sketch #15

I am loving her sketches and I am stretching my creativity by making my style work with the "puzzle" of these sketches. I have learned a lot of new placement opportunities, i would have never thought to do. I hope you love it.  I dont work with purple very often, but I couldn't resist this pattern!  Strawberries and butterflies!  So summery and vintage, Oh MY!

Sketch #27



Can you believe it, blogged in time!  Im getting it!  I really had a great time creating this sketch.  I used my initial instead of a sentiment, I have been wanting to use these stamps forever and finally had a chance on this design, making this a note card instead of a greeting card, I would love to have the time to make about 4 of these,  Id love to have a set for myself

So I think Im getting the hang of sketches, yesterdays card was my first time using one :)    I thought at first it was "cheating", but let me tell you, it makes me pull my mind out of the same ol' and use my things in a way I would never have came up with on my own, stretching me way out of the box!  If you love these papers, check out her shop  http://www.zibbet.com/tsunamirose  

The papers I used from her shop here are: Vintage Rouge Brown, Vintage Rose, and Soft Flowers.

I used some music paper scraps I have of another brand, however she does have a beautiful sheet called Vintage Floret that would be perfect!

The stamp is an old SEI stamp, also Martha Stewart eyelet lace punch and embossing powder, pop dots and hot glue, the tag is from Basic Gray, prima pearls.    Hope you adore the card, I do!

Surprising Technique! My Mothers Day Cards

I ran a hard a regular dress form chipboard cut under card stock through my Big Shot, the same way you would use a spellbinder, this was the result, a few tares, as expected, but beautiful none the less!  I trimmed around them and added a few embellishments.
