Freshly Made Sketches #573

Kim is our hostess at Freshly Made Sketches #573 this week ... I'm now recognizing that my recall is no longer total!  geesh - this is the Sketch:


Turns out I was so happy planting my little posies it didn't occur to me that I flipped the Sketch!  Oh well, maybe I'll find a little more time for Second Helpings?

A very old SSS Hydrangea Petals meets new Altenew sentiment die!  
It's been an age since I relied on this MFT Stitched Strip to add pizzazz to my card - 
worked its charm for that panel in Kim's Sketch!

Thanks for all the love left for Nancy and me yesterday!  You're all so kind!

  3. Gosh, this is just bright and sweet and pretty! A rainbow of color against the white, and you know how I love it when old meets new. It can't be a problem that you flipped the sketch, can it? I can clearly see it. Your interpretation is clever and delightful, Michele!

  8. Super fun and playful! I like your rainbow row of blooms and the stitched banner across the top. I have some stitching dies and never think to use them. I should pull them out and experiment with them. This is delightful!
