Flowers to say Thank You

Two of my favorite challenges always come due on the same day, so what better way to join them than to combine the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches and the colors from Color Throwdown.  I think they came together rather nicely, don't you?

On a base of Whisper White cardstock, I added a layer of Night of Navy followed by another layer of Whisper White.  The stamp I used is from the April 2016 Paper Pumpkin kit.  It was a bonus stamp set in the kit and, considering I love flowers, I totally love it!  The flowers were stamped in Crushed Curry ink and the flower stems, flower centers and sentiment were stamped in Night of Navy ink.  The center of the flowers have clear Bitty Buttons with a Rhinestone Basic Jewel over it.  Then, I added a few more Rhinestone Basic Jewels to finish it off. 


For today's card, I used the sketch I used is from Freshly Made Sketches challenge.
