CAS(E) this Sketch #115

Sam Simpson threw me a curveball this week - well it is time for Spring training!  Here is her fabulous sketch:

 
It is awesome, and pretty straight forward... left to my own imagination?  That's where things can get a little more tricky =\ There may be more, rather than less, in the "to be recycled later" file.
 
MFT to the rescue - can one go wrong with white? I hope Sam doesn't mind my butterfly stand-in. For CTS#115:
 
 
From MFT:  Polka Dot Cover-up plate, Gerbera Daisy Dies - centers stamped with an MFT background stamp, and Fuse Green hybrid ink used to emboss the sentiment.
Other supplies:  Willow Dragonfly from Memory Box.  Thank You sentiment from Technique Tuesday's Mama=Love set.

White on white, with pretty embossing and a gorgeous dragonfly...I'd call that a knock-it-out-of-the-park home run! Love this!!

Oh, Michelle--I just love this white on white creation. It's just lovely. And, I love that you are on a dragonfly kick. I just stamped a trio of them on a card yesterday that I hope to get posted later today.
