well I have a another very spring like card today probably to counter the mid winter dark and cold we are having right now. Was so darn cold this week - brrrr.
This week we have a sketch for you at Just Add Ink. I think you will find that it lends itself to being CAS or more elaborate if you like. I think this week I kind of ending up some where in the middle - lol! Here's the sketch.
And here is what I made of it.
The embossed vellum overlay is only attached at the top, and to make sure it wasn't going any where I sewed it in place with my sewing machine. The only other point to note is that I coloured the flowers using markers and also using ink from ink pad lids using an aquapainter. The combination of both lets you get a more intense colour.
Hope you can join us this and try out the sketch - we'd love to see your take on it!
Thanks for visiting,
Kim

Your use of colour is outstanding on this luscious card, Kim. I love the embossed vellum, the sweet doily, and the brightly coloured floral spray. Gorgeous creation. x
