CAS[E] this Sketch #331

Brian King's Sketch this week leaves lots to the imagination...


My imagination was helped along by my friend amy T's gorgeous DOX combination on Instagram last week … and the need for a condolence card.

Distress Oxides:
Scattered Straw, Tattered Rose, and Worn lipstick
Blended onto a panel of Canson XL Bristol paper,
and spritzed with a Ranger Mini mister.
 
One sweet little Dainty Blossoms bloom from Pinkfresh Studios, and an Altenew sentiment, stamped with Versamark heat embossed with Altenew Rose Gold embossing powder, and I'm calling this complete!
 
We hope you are completely taken with Brian's Sketch #331, and will play cards with us this week!  See you in our gallery!
