Good Morning! I do hope your week if off to a great start! It's Tuesday and the 3rd week of Tuesday Morning Sketches birthday celebration. I am having a lot of with this. I've really enjoyed seeing some of my old sketches being refreshed this month.
This week's sponsor is Lindsay from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff - Lindsay was one of the first sponsors of TMS when I first began the challenge blog. So this week is still to chose your favorite past sketch, but I've added a theme: WHAT REMINDS YOU OF SUMMER.
I love flowers. A funny statement from me since I grew up in a flower shop and hated them! But I've matured since then. Anyway, I can't say that I have a favorite flower - but I do love daffodils. Their color is so vibrant and just screams summer to me. I also participated in The Pink Elephant's challenge which was to use brown.
Supplies:
Digi-Image: Fancy Flowers (LSS)
Stamps/Ink: Mini-Messages (PTI), Rich Cocoa (Memento)
Card Stock: Neenah Milled Ivory, Chocolate Chip
Paper: Spring Flowers (SU!)
Copics: B000, Y11, Y15, Y17, YG63
Tools: 1" and 1 3/8" circle punches, CM oval cutter
Embellishments: Ribbon (Offray)
I hope you like my card - I'm not very happy with the photo. I also hope you join us over at Tuesday Morning Sketches.
