For this week's Sketch Challenge. The Poppin' Pastels technique on this card was inspired by a card created by fellow North Dakotan, flowerbugnd1. Check out her gallery--she does FABULOUS work!
This card also qualifies for this week's Technique Lovers Challenge: use an accessory you don't like. I NEVER use my chalks! The Print Pattern was stamped in VersaMark, chalked with So Saffron and Almost Amethyst and then overstamped with French Script background in Gold Encore Metallic ink. The flowers were chalked with So Saffron, Almost Amethyst and Old Olive. The sentiment was embossed with Gold Detail EP. It's more shimmery in real life.

This is stunning!!! I really love the layered bkgr base, and the dotted harlequin looks great on the gold CS. Thanks so much for sharing - definitely into my faves.

Just like everyone else my chalks sit unused. Your print diamond background is beautiful!!! Well the whole card is but I really like the double color effect of the background and the flowers!
