For today's sketch challenge I wanted to make a card to say thank you to our pastor for all his hard work. I started out with an oval for the tree image but didn't have one big enough to do it justice so had to change to a circle - Faith did say we could change the shape! It was stamped with SU Soft Suede and sponged while still in the die with Ranger Distress Antique Linen - the leaves are stamped with various Ranger inks. The edges of the two dp strips are sponged with Soft Suede. After punching the leaves I crinkled them up and sponged the edges with Ranger Distress inks - I loved how easy that was! The sentiment circle was cut with Nestabilities circles and scalloped circles and popped up. To make the triple loop bow I used thin wire to fix.
