For today's Sketch Challenge, SC123. I stamped the flower images (Bundles of Bouquets from My Favorite Things in Black Stazon and then colored them with Prismacolor and SU markers. I used the 1 1/4" square punch to punch out the image, mounted them on black and then punched them out again using the 1 3/8" square punch. I then drew the doodles using a fine tip Pilot Black Gel Pen. For the background, I embossed a piece of Whisper White cardstock with the Cuttlebug Textile embossing folder. To decorate the bottom, I used the large oval punch and punched a hole where I wanted the sentiment. The sentiment is stamped in Real Red and then mounted on black. I punched it out using the small oval punch and then mounted it on black again, punched using the large oval punch and then hand trimmed it down. The background panel and the four flower images are raised on mounting tape.

What an eye-catching card! Love those images in red and black and the CB background really sets them off. Really like the oval punched out with the sentiment and the ribbons.
