Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #243
Hello!
Happy Wednesday! I hope you're having a great week! We here in Southern Ontario are slowly nearing the end of school. Today and tomorrow and then we're done. The kids have been "done" mentally for weeks however, for some reason this year seemed extra long!
We have a great new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches this week! Our fabulous hostess is the amazing Amy O'Neill! Amy's cards are so beautiful and she comes up with the best colour combinations!
Amy's sketch is super versatile but of course I had trouble with this one! I think because I left it late and was feeling pressured. I needed two more teacher cards - for teachers who don't actually teach my kids!!! I started out with may different shapes for that flower. Coffee cups, flowers, circles and finally a butterfly! I used a sentiment from the stamp set that came in the Watercolour Wishes kit. I can't get enough of the Silly Stitched dies so I'll probably use them on every card for the next 2 months!!!
Supplies:
Cardstock: Whisper White, Basic Black
DSP: Cherry on Top DSP Stack
Stamps: LJD Blissful Butterflies (MFT), Watercolour Wonder
Ink: Stazon Black
Other: Basic Rhinestones, Silly Stitched Dies, Butterfly Dies, Dimensionals
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you'll have time to head over to the Freshly Made Sketches blog and check out the beautiful cards the Design Team has created for you!
Have a fabulous day!

Wonderful mix of patterns. LOVE the wonky stitching with the patterns on the butterflies! And the patterned paper grounds it all perfectly.
