The Flower Challenge #106 Reminder - Use Our Sketch

Hello friends.  Just a friendly reminder that there's still plenty of time to play along with us here at The Flower Challenge, where we'd like you to use our sketch with your florals.


Using PFS's Floral Focus stencils, I colored my panel and then used my Crimped Circle Die (The Greetery) to cut out a portion to fit the bottom, left hand corner of my card.  Take a look...

I used the coordinating stamp (Floral Focus) to create my background panel with black ink, and then adhered the stenciled circle to it.  I added a black panel to mat it and attached both layers to a white card base.

I know the sketch shows the sentiment a little higher, but I felt mine (MB's Just A Note Posh Script) looked better on the lower corner.  I added a few black enamel dots (Gina K) to finish.

 You can check out what my teammates came up with using this sketch right HERE and then play along.  We'd love to see all your floral cards using this sketch in our gallery!!  This challenge is open till Thursday, Sept. 25th @ 5:00PM.


Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!

I just think it's so pretty how you nestled the colored flowers in the corner of the stamped panel, and your sentiment is in just the right spot. It's funny how this sketch looked so simple, but I managed to make it more complex. You've made a lovely, inspiring sample, Marcia!

Spotlight coloring did its job! Your colors are warm and inviting, and the florals are beautiful

The colored circle is warm and beautiful on the b & w background. I think you found the perfect spot for the sentiment too. Beautifully done my friend~

This is just fabulous, Marcia. I love the way you used the stencil and the stamp set to compliment each other.

Such a creative idea to highlight the circle with colored blooms! So eye catching and just plain gorgeous!

These spotlighted flowers are a beautiful way to use this sketch, Marcia! I'm wondering why I didn't get these crimped dies. Sigh...

I love a little poetic license with a sketch. This is quite lovely and the sentiment at the bottom is perfect.

Creating the spot of color in the corner is a lovely way to use this sketch, Marcia! The soft yellow flowers are so pretty and I love that sentiment just where it is!
