Time for another sketch challenge at Stamping 411!
Fun, huh?!! I knew exactly which stamp I was going to use:
The Sweet Floral background stamp!!! I colored it with my Real Red and Old Olive Stampin' Write Markers, then gave it a "huff" and stamped!! Hard to mess it up! :-) For the sentiment, I stamped the sweet floral image again (without reinking it!) on a scrap of Whisper White cardstock. Then, stamped my sentiment (from Perfectly Penned) in Black Stazon ink! I added some rhinestones in two of the corners--just for fun! And, there's Real Red Satin ribbon behind the sentiment panel! Super easy (as usual, for me!)
Be sure to check out all the Operators' work on the Stamping 411 blog!!! They'll blow you away!
