This is my take on Sketch Challenge 82. I picked up this stamp (for 40% off!) at Stamp-A-Dee-Do-Dah in Milwaukie, Oregon over the weekend. (Isn't that the coolest name for a stamping store?!) This stamp lends itself perfectly for the huffing and puffing technique. LOL! I applied the ink to the rubber with my Elegant Eggplant and Always Artichoke markers, huffed to remoisten the ink and stamped it three times on Whisper White cs. I trimmed the panel into three equal rectangles, layered them on Always Artichoke cs and adhered them to the Elegant Eggplant panel. The entire panel is adhered with Dimensionals to an Always Artichoke card base.
I wrapped some Eggplant grosgrain ribbon around the card base and then stamped my sentiment (using my ever-faithful Stamp-A-Ma-Jig) with Elegant Eggplant ink directly to the card base. Oh yeah, I also added Crystal Stickles to the flower centers.
There you have it! TFL - Regina

I like the matching envelope and love what you did with the layout. This was my own recycle accident layout, love when that happens! Thanks for sharing!
