When I saw this sketch, I knew I wanted to use some
designer paper...."need to use paper" keeps ringing in my head!
I tend to hoard paper and then have much left when it retires.
I grabbed my Country Lane DSP and decided to stress the paper
with my fingernail. I layered it on a Blackberry Bliss card base.
I stamped the florals on a piece of thick white card stock
in Memento Tuxedo Black and started coloring with my
Stampin Blends markers. I added the sentiment from the same set
Country Home. I cut it out with the stitched square and added
some chicken wire foil behind with a little Blackberry twine
to finish it off. Will be sending this off to my mom this week.
