It’s time for another new sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches, and this week our sweet friend in Florida, Cindy Hall, has a fun sketch for us.
This sketch had me stumped for a while, but as I was looking through my stamps for something that would fit on three small squares I came across a stamp set and coordinating punch that I hadn’t used before, Grateful Bunch and the Blossom Bunch Punch. This set just didn’t appeal to me much when I saw it in the catalog, but once I stamped with it, I loved it and I thought that the flowers could be substituted for the squares in the sketch. Yes — I’m probably stretching that last part a little, but I was truly inspired by the sketch.
I used a color scheme of Calypso Coral, Cucumber Crush, and Basic Black. Because I love the pretty stitching on the leaves, I chose to keep the card really clean and simple, and let the flowers be the only other pops of color.
We hope you’ll join us and play along this week! Meanwhile, you can jump on over to the Freshly Made Sketches site to see what the rest of the team made for a big dose of inspiration.
Enjoy your Wednesday! Thanks for stopping by!
Not a stretch at all! This is a fabulous take on the sketch! Very pretty card!
This is definitely a wow card, Amy! Those stitched leaves are gorgeous and I can very definitely see the sketch.
I don’t think it’s a stretch on the sketch at all! I love how you used the flowers to play the part of the diamonds! Beautiful!

You are awesome and this card is awesome! I love the bright leaves and flowers, the super-crisp stamping and the peek-a-boo panel. Beautiful design, Amy!
