I havent done this sketch challenge for a goodly while. So last night I decided to have a go. I wanted to keep it fresh and am loving the yellow at the moment. I dusted off my medallion which I havent used much at all as I have struggled with uses for it. and last night I had this idea of using it and decided to run with it. If I made it again there are a few tweaks I would change. The one thats bothering me the most is the upper right writing, its slightly lopsided and I struggle with things like this. I am trying hard to not notice it lol.
Ok my ingredients are from stampin up and are as follows
Card stock - Daffodil delight and Whisper white
Stamps - Medallion, French Foliage, artistic etchings
Inks - Daffodil delight, black, sahara sand, basic grey
Extras - Piece of DS paper stack, basic grey ribbon, button, crystals
Big shot - top note die
Thanks for looking
Jo

A beautifully designed card! Love the combination of images and colors! I don't see a thing wrong with your card! We tend to be our own worst critics don't we?

Lovely beyond words! And the kittywompous stamped text? Didn't even notice it because I was admiring your masterful asymmetrical placement of bling in that upper corner! Definitely worthy of being a CAS fav of the week. Congrats!
