I have been diligently working on using up long retired papers. This pack has such bright, happy colors. I stamped a couple two-step daisies to use as a focal point. The polka-dot paper and the broken line of the daisy stems made me think of raindrops, so I added a stitched die cut cloud for the sentiment, which I popped up. The butterflies were already cut and stored with the paper so I used a couple of those. In the flower centers, I colored with a So Saffron marker and then glued on crystals. The color subtly shows through for a touch of yellow in the center. Fun layout. I hope you can join in with the Sketch Challenge. I look forward to seeing how you create with the sketch. Thanks for looking!

Beautiful card! I love seeing retired product mixed up fresh with new. The stitched cloud, crystals & b-flys make a stunning card. Thanks for the inspiration to use the retired product!

I absolutely love the choice of dsp! I never had this pack (no idea why), but I wish I did because it is so bright and happy! The flowers fit perfectly in the sketch, and I love the sentiment floating on a cloud. Great card!
