Sepia Thanks


Hello again!

Today I'm playing along with the Share Joy challenge as well as celebrating The Card Concept's second birthday.  They have such a pretty picture to draw inspiration from!  I used the basic sketch from Share Joy and pulled the colors, script and rhinestones from the Card Concept photo.

Can you believe that I still have that Script background in my stash?  It was one of the first SU sets I got years and years ago.  I just ran and checked.  It's dated 1999!! :)  I combined that with the new Wildflower Bouquet set from Taylored Expressions.  I stamped the bouquet on Sand cardstock from Gina K and colored it with Spectrum Noir colored pencils, trying to aim for a sepia look.  I hope to send it out to a GraceWorks customer later this week.



Thanks for stopping by!!

Very pretty! And a script background stamp is never going to go out of style! That is so fun you got to use it!

Oh, Tricia, what a beautiful card with this sweet bouquet in the Mason jar, and I love the Irish blessing script background. Some things never go out of style. You've really captured both the sketch and the colors of this challenge! I love it! Hugs!

So beautiful, Tricia! Love the coloring of your flowers and your partial script. I still have that stamp in my collection too. Can't bear to part with it.
