Blogger’s Challenge – Sketch

And boy oh boy, was it a challenge this week. At first I thought “what a nice & easy layout”. Yeah right?! Once I started to play, I really wanted to use the Greenhouse Gala DSP, but it all just didn’t come together.

So I decided against the DSP but still used at least the colors from that page I wanted…

Anyway here is the challenging sketch:

I think that greeting below the middle square, really threw me for a loop. But now that I’ve stepped away from the card, I think I am starting to like it…

Here you go:

The Colors don’t come out right. I’ve used: Marina Mist, Pear Pizzazz, Peach Parfait and Early Espresso…

Stamp Sets: Apple Blossom (hostess level 2) Set and Pretty Patterns Background…

Thanks Lisa, for the challenge this week :-)

  7. This is really pretty. I agree the sentiment under the box was tricky. The wallpaper texture goes great with this set also. Love it!
