I've taken quite a few liberties with interpreting the sketch and have used a leaf stencil with some pretty and spring-like colours as in the Southern Hemisphere it is now "Spring" but when I had created my leaf cluster I thought to myself that looks like it would make a lovely Sympathy card. I've also flipped the sketch on it's side.
I'm also going to play along with The Paper Players as they have a CAS and Back to Nature challenge happening.

Well I'm pleasantly surprised how much I like my card and I feel like my blobs AKA leaves look rather pretty in their Spring-colours.

ReplyDeleteThanks so much Maaike I was really pleasantly surprised how this all turned out
DeleteIt is indeed a challenging sketch but you've done wonders with it. I love the clean, crisp design of this. The spring colours are great and the little stitched detailing around the card panel add a real touch of elegance. It's great to touch base with another New Zealander in the card challenge world too! Thanks for sharing this with us at The Paper Players.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jan
DeleteKaren... gorgeous sympathy card. Bummer we have to make them but at least we do it in style. Love your soft colors and CAS design. (I think you nailed the sketch too!) Thanks so much for sharing with Just Us Girls.
