SKETCHES! by Tamara #66

Love the sketch that Tamara has given us this week! I knew instantly what i was going to do with it, and i'm really pleased with the end result too! I haven't made one of my ribbon flowers for ages(original can be seen here) so i thoroughly enjoyed making one for this card!

This card is 5 x 7, which is one of my prefered sizes at the moment, it gives more of a base to work on, where sometimes a smaller card just does not give the same impact! All other cardstock is Bazzill, and the white piece has been run through the Cuttlebug using Swiss Dots. The ribbon is from my stash, you just can't have too much ribbon can you? The centre of my flower is Making Memories from the 5th Avenue collection, with a Dovecraft gem brad. The sentiment and the button are also Making Memories.

I do hope you can find some time to play along this week and don't forget to check out the other fab designs from my team mates!

Thanks for popping in today, and i'll see you soon :) Take Care...

    Fab card, Carol. Love black, white & fuchsia, and white card with swiss dots always adds elegance to a card, I think.
