Last Sunday's IC was Kleenux boxes, I had a Softly Gallery brand box that I wanted to use BUT since it wasn't the right brand I didn't use it. Until today. I thought it would work perfectly for the sketch challenge..........details.......
I included the box in my photo so you could see how beautiful my inspiration piece was. Hopefully I put some of the beauty on my card.
From back to front:
#1: Stamped the squares, then shaded with acrylic paint and sponged the edges with tea dye.
#2:Stamped my leaves, shaded with acrylic paint and cut them out for effect.
#3: Cut a white cs panel, cb'd it with dotted swiss, sponged old olive.
#4:Stamped my pears, colored with re-inkers, sponged blue around them then sponged edges.
#5: Stamped dragon fly, colored with re-inkers, put Alleene's paper glaze on it, sponged and doodled edges.
Well, that is pretty much it. Hope you like it............TFL :0)

This is so soft and lovely. The doodles verified this was your card. Your colors are usually so rich. Now you do both soft and rich (sounds like a country group name lol). LOVE this card, sis. tfs.

I laughed when I saw your title and then laughed some more, but with greater appreciation, when I read your description!!! I thought you were being funny and suggesting that the little dragonfly had sneezed and knocked over your beautiful pears! It's still tickling my funny bone, but you have done gorgeous work duplicating the design from your kleenex box.
