May Flowers

This week, at Tuesday Morning Sketches, we have a beautiful sketch for you by Melissa. Not sure if you all didn't care for the blank canvas challenge or if you didn't care for "that" blank canvas challenge because we didn't have very many entries. Hope this lovely sketch will boost participation this week.

I am using papers from We Are 3 digital designs. This lovely garden paper set is so romantic (and even a bit Victorian in looks/feel) to me. I thought it was perfect for this week's sketch. It is called "Little Garden."

I printed off a sheet  of the paper shown in the bottom left (above) and then cut the top left corner and right bottom corner off. The green gingham background is not from We Are 3. It is a piece of scrap that I had in my scrap bag. After gluing the two sides onto the gingham, I then printed off the second paper in the top row (above) so that I could then cut the flower pot into an oval piece for the middle of my card. I matted the oval with another piece of scrap from my scrap bag (love it when I can use some of my scraps, don't you?). I then added the three little blossoms (Wild Orchid Crafts) and some green leaves (punched from the same scrap as the oval mat).

Make sure you go over to the Tuesday Morning blog and look at all the DT samples this week. I think you will be highly inspired! The prize this week is an embellishment bag (ribbon, sequins and flowers).
