Thank You


 I found this retired floral image in my stash, so I colored it after matching it with some DCWV Linen Closet dsp. I colored it with Spectrum Noir aqua markers and some green Copics, then added some sparkle with green and turquoise stickles. The twine is Lawn Fawn, and those mini flowers were done with Island Indigo cardstock and a retired mini flower punch, along with some matching brads. The image and mat were cut with SB petite oval dies. The sentiment tag was heat embossed with white ep and I used a SU! tiny tag stamp and matching punch, adding a turquoise gemstone for a little more sparkle.

I'm sharing this with the following challenges:

Simon Says Wednesday Challenge - a bit of sparkle

Craftyhazelnut's May 2017 Patterned Paper challenge - a/g but must use patterned paper

Tuesday Morning Sketch challenge #403 using the following sketch:


Wishing everyone a great Thursday, and thanks for stopping by :)
