Every once in a while I get a hankerin' to create a larger A7 size card. I just feel the need for more creative space, KWIM?
So when I saw this week's sketch at Sasya's Sketches I knew just what stamp I wanted to use because it needs a big space to "flow". And also because I just LOVE this sketch too! *grin*
It seems to be calling out for a large stamp and I complied with PTI's YOF: Larkspurs. After embossing in white, I colored it with Copics and cut it out with a nestie. On a Smokey Shadow base, with touches of lavender and green, this card is for my older sister Judy's birthday (which happens to be today!)
Why not try this sketch out and submit your card or project to Sasya's Sketches! You could win prizes or even be a guest designer!
Thanks for stopping by, have a good hump day!
PS. Today was the first day of school for us and I wanted to share some photos of my boys, but our computer totally crashed at home so I had to come to the library to type this post last night. Alas, no photos...*pout* I'm hoping something can be fixed becasue I have lots of cards to post!

I feel like I always say "wow" in my comments, but seriously, Dana, WOW! I LOVE the white embossing--haven't seen that done with any of the YOF. Did you use white cs for the image? Your coloring is so very gorgeous. I'm totally going to try white embossing...such a beautiful, soft look!
The coloring is so soft it looks like chalk. Beautiful!
Beautiful coloring job-it reminds me of stanined glass. I love the lavender with the smokey shadow!

I love this card, Dana! You did such a beautiful job with the coloring- it's so perfect! I haven't purchased any of the YOF sets, but you are really tempting me!
