I did the sketch challenge to make a 'garden card' for my mum who likes to garden and will probably give this to her for Mother' Day (that's another card finished early!). I did a floral bg stamp on the base card of So Saffron; the Bella image was stamped on whisper white, colored with markers, then I went around it with various shades of Pebbles Shimmery Chalks. I sprayed with Krylon to set it. The rest of the layers were DTP with Cameo Coral and ribbon, flowers and hearts finished it....bit heavy on the embellishing (that's me!)....yet I still feel the card is a bit dull. But I know she will like it and that's what matters! (oh, and I did fix the crooked ribbon!! after I took the picture....rolling my eyeballs).
