I have lots of new goodies since last we've gathered. On the top of the list to use is a fabulous, beautiful set designed by my friend May Park called Oriental Orchid ... here's what I've done with it for this week's sketch ... a match made in Heaven, I think!
For it's first use, I've chosen to white heat-emboss the outline of the orchids onto linen vellum, and add a bit of simple coloring on the reverse with Copics. A sprinkling of wonderful sequins [a very generous gift in my W&W order] and voila!
A little close-up and I'll leave you with my thanks, and a wish to see YOU in our CAS[E] this Sketch gallery this week!
Please, be sure to check out all the loveliness my team-mates have to inspire us!

Rusty? Surely you jest. I was wondering if that was a white-embossed-colored-from-behind little number. It's absolutely gorgeous and thee perfect take on the sketch!

Your orchids are the perfect choice for this sketch, Michele! I love your Copic coloring, and that you chose linen vellum for this card! So elegant and stunning!
Fresh and lovely, Michele ... the delicate orchid is wonderful embossed on the soft vellum ... and your colouring against the white outlines ... swoon ... gorgeous! Hugs, Anita :)
Another gorgeous card!
Oh so pretty!!!! Is that vellum you used? It looks white cardstock to me. And your coloring is so beautiful, I haven't noticed you used Copics until I read your writing. Way to go!!!!!
