Fun, easy sketch challenge today! I did a little tweaking...turned it upside down to better suit the placement of the horizontal panel & I used a tall silhouette image for my vertical panel.
The wildflowers were stamped w/ Versafine directly onto a piece of dp. One of the smaller bird labels was stamped w/ the turquoise ink onto black c/s & embossed w/ a mixture of baby blue & mint pastel embossing powders. The greeting was embossed inside the label & I used a Versamark pen & the same powders to edge it after it was die cut. A narrow ribbon & some beads I strung were added.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups are on my blog: The Write Stuff

Beautiful and serene feeling card with the lovely shade of blue you chose to go with the black, Julie. I like how you reversed the colors on your label sentiment with its own little scene.

Julie, what a stunning card you have here. Love that image and the way your heat embossing compliments your card. Always love seeing out of the box technique as well.

Beautiful and very special card! I love the silhouette images you used, and the blue embossed bird silhouette on your label looks so rich and gorgeous. Wonderful choice of color and your multi-loop bow and beads is an exceptional element - great card!
