The out of the box feature I marked the image on the back while holding to a light source then used the paper cutter to cut to that mark. Scissor cut the image out. I used a Coluzzle and craft knife to cut the sides. I do have a pictorial on my blog if you need photos, click here. ItÂ’s a direct link to the tutorial.
Stampin Up oval punches were used for the sentiment.
Both the sentiment and image panels are popped up with foam tape.
The Faux brads are circles from a tag Cuttlebug die cut that I glue to the card then apply Aleene’s Paper Glaze for a shiny finish. I use the CB die because it rounds the edges like a real brad. These are very easy to pick up with a straight pin dipped in glue then touch the back of the circle and it’ll pick it up, now place it on the card by pressing down with the finger – it will allow you to move if needed before the glue dries.

I love everything about this card! I can tell the inside is just as fantastic as the front of it and I love how you made a matching envelope. Perfect! TFS

Roxie, this is sooooo beautiful. Those perfectly colored flowers just "pop" out and I love your use of the sketch. Love the nice clean look too. I haven't played the sketch challenges lately and really enjoy them. Hopefully, I'll be able to soon. Thanks for everything you do to post the sketches each week!
