CAS[E] this Sketch #388

My sweet and talented friend Michelle Leone [a.k.a. 2 Ls] has created our Sketch this week!  It's a beauty … take a look:


Now.  I haven't seen 2 Ls' card... but something tells me we might be using similar supplies?  We'll see, won't we!? Here's a look at how my card came together:

After stamping and Copic coloring this sweet branch from Keep Going [Pinkfresh Studios]
I snipped it in two!

The two pieces were arranged in the little 'pocket' created with
this fun die - also from Pinkfresh Studios: Noteworthy Frames


I soon realized it was missing something... enter Pinkfresh again!  This time,
with their  Dainty Blossoms dies for these sweet little 'filler' stems cut from Neenah 110# cardstock that totally completed my arrangement!
By now, you may have noticed my newest Spellbinder love:
Candlewick Ovals … and you know I couldn't stop with one shape, so watch for more!
Looking at it here, it would have been just as perfect without that oval...
what do you think?  Will I be making Second Helpings this week?

I hope you've found something here today that will encourage you to play cards with us this week at CAS[E] this Sketch #388!   Thanks so very much for stopping by!

    Wowzers...too bad you're on the DT. This would be a winner, hands down. It is just plain gorgeous, from those lovely blooms to that fabulous oval down to the delicate foliage.

    You sure have encouraged me Michele and my creation for the sketch is drying as we speak...I had fun with it x.
    Your card is beautiful and so very feminine. I love how you 'snipped' the beautiful flowers and great how you did the sentiment strip x.
    That oval die cut is so delicate and frames your card beautifully x. Thank you for the inspiration Michele x.

    I love the way that label makes a little pocket to tuck your beautifully shaded flowers into! Love that you gave the sentiment a little ombre action too! Vicky x

    This card is just stunning Michele! I love that background oval die, it is so elegant and just plan gorgeous. I also love how the die of the sentiment makes a pocket of sorts, very cool die. I just love the flowers and how you colored them, and the added "leaves" in white just take it up a notch! Yep, I'm in love with this one my friend! Hugs, Brenda

    This is sooo pretty, Michele! I love it! The Copic colored flowers are so beautiful with the dainty white die-cut stems & leaves. The way you tucked them under the sentiment label is so clever and the oval frame finishes the card with sweetness :-)
