Narelle has an awesome new sketch for us this week at Freshly Made Sketches. This classic look has all kinds of possibilities! I opted to keep really true to the sketch and keep it pretty simple.
As soon as I saw the sketch, I thought flower. Because it is snowing again and I’m ready for flowers. But which flower? I had not played with the new Spiral Flower Die so it seemed like a good time to pull it out. The Watercolor Wonder DSP is a new obsession and it seemed perfect to combine them. I chose on of the watercolor-y pages with multiple colors (great explanation, right?) for the flower. Ran that through the Big Shot and all the work is done pretty much. I used my Bone Folder to add a little curl to the cut out and then rolled it up and attached it together with hot glue. I rolled it a little loose and the center seemed too empty. So, I cut a strip of 1/2″ Tangerine Tango about 5″ long and cut with the Fringe Scissors. Rolled it up and hot glued it to the center. I chose this polka dot pattern to match and pretty much done. The sentiment is from Four You (wow, what a useful set). While the flower makes it unmailable, it is perfect for a hand-delivered thank you, don’t you think?
The team has some fabulous interpretations again this week and you will be certain to love playing along with this one. Can’t wait to see you in the gallery!
Back tomorrow with some more projects from Leadership. Until then, thanks so much for stopping by! See you soon!
