08.21.2023…..Happy Monday, my stampin’ friends! Today, I wanted to share a card that I created for this month’s Stampin’ Fancy Friday challenge! It’s a super fun“ Sketch Challenge”. I always love a sketch challenge, because it’s the perfect way to jump-start your creativity!
I always love a sketch challenge. I’m also totally obsessed with two of the new SU colors…..Lemon Lolly and Bubble Bath. So, of course I had to use those colors for this month’s challenge. To die cut the flowers, I used the Sentimental Park Dies, and then used the Exposed Brick 3D EF and the Quatrefoil Tile EF to add some extra texture.
