Truly Scrumptious


I thought I would use green for the Truly Scrumptious challenge. It's a great sketch to follow and something shiny must be added!
Well my finished card looks a bit unbalanced so after I enter it for the challenge I am going to remove the sentiment and put one along the bottom white area
Then I will use it for a Mothers Day card as I drew the orchid because my mum loves them!
I have used
Papers............Daisy and Dandelion..Picnic patch and others from stash
Image.............my own sketch coloured with Promarkers
Ribbon............Dunelm Mill

and I didn't want to add too much bling so the shiny bit is the gems at the corners.

    Gorgeous Ruth - love the colours and papers you've used. Your image is just beautiful.
    I know what you mean about ending up with a lack of balance - I do it frequently - usually cut the card down and then have no envelope to fit - derrrrr..........
    Thanks for joining us at TS.
    hugs Heather xx
