This is my combo for the sketch and for the DDIC. What's a DDIC? The Divine Divas Inspiration Challenge! And this is our first challenge! We would love for y'all to play along.
The background is embossing resist. I stamped the vines and butterflies (Inkadinkado) w/ Versamark and embossed w/ pastel pink ep. Then I applied a few different brown inks to the bg and filled in the little areas inside the images w/ a chocolate brown marker.
I stamped the vine again, this time on Pink Pirouette, and embossed w/ chocolate brown ep. I added a big flower (Autumn Leaves) and a couple of smaller ones (Purple Onion) then traced around my image using a large Nestie rectangle. I did my Out of the Box Nestie Technique tech to cut this panel. I used a pale pink marker to add a slight shadow around my image and added a chocolate brown brad in the upper left corner.
The sentiment (Inkadinkado) was also embossed and cut w/ an oval Nestie. I used a scallop oval Nestie on a piece of the emboss resist bg for the layer behind the sentiment. The top panel was bugged w/ the Cuttlebug Swiss Dot folder on a piece of Pretty in Pink. I added a small ribbon tag on the side and a piece of the ribbon over the seam of the Swiss Dot panel and the bg.
Thanks so much for looking

So pretty, Julie! I love the pink and brown combo for this challenge. Your attention to detail and embossing are just amazing! I love the combination of the CB dots, the ribbon, and all the pretty flowers.
