Skipping Stones Design Sketch 117

Hello!

Today begins another sketch challenge at Skipping Stones Design!  This is our final sketch for February provided by Kazan Clark.  I am especially excited to show you my card today because it's a little sneak peek of a gorgeous set that will be released next month.


This beautiful set is aptly named Beautiful Botanicals and it will be available for purchase on March 12.  It is a follow up of sorts to the very popular Dandelion Dreams and the sets complement each other so well- but more on that later. 

For my card today, I inked the large floral image with a light pink ink and followed up with a few pounces of dark pink ink to give it more interest.  I stamped the sentiment in black and matted the stamped image on a piece of yellow cardstock.  I added a piece of doily, some pink pleated ribbon and buttons before adhering all the bits and pieces to a kraft card based covered with pretty yellow paper from the October Afternoon Sidewalks collection. 

Here is a close up of the sentiment and ribbon: 


And here is the sketch the team is working with today:


Wanna give this sketch a whirl?  Link your take on this sketch to today's Skipping Stones blog post for a chance to win a free stamp set of your choice!  Our rules are pretty simple- no more than 5 combined challenges and we need to be able to see the sketch- but feel free to flip it or change it up to let your creativity shine through!!!  New to Skipping Stones?  You don't even have to use our sets to play along, but we sure love it when you do!!!

Be sure to check out the other DT gals and our guests and their amazing cards this week!
