Build a Rose for Match the Sketch and CAS Colors and Sketches
23 October 2017
Hi Everyone. Quick post for you tonight.
I managed to play along with a couple of challenges yesterday and saw this great sketch across at Matchthesketch and colors across at CAS Colors and Sketches
I don't have the SU colors, so tried to match them as closely as I could with the Altenew colors. I decided to try something different for the circle element on the sketch and used the embossed die technique. The Leafy Wreath die from Altenew was the perfect die to use with this technique. I stamped the rose in shades of pink and the leaves in the most lemon/lime colors I could.
I love this rose... I know I said it yesterday, but I really do think it is beautiful. I added a little glimmer to the petals with my gel roller pen. It looks lovely in real life :-)
I love these colors together - and think the sketch is great. Here's my full card:
I'll be back tomorrow with another card for you. Oh.... and the "S" word is in our forecast this week - after reaching almost 80 this past weekend. Noooooooooo :-) Warm hugs and prayers for those of you who need a little lift tonight.
Hugs
Jaydee
