Timeless Tuesday Sketch
Well it's TT over at Flourishes and Heather has made it a sketch challenge which I love as it means someone else is doing my work of placement for me so Yeah here goes. I certainly hope I get a few visits on this one as last week I was left crying and hurt that no one came by and said hello. Just kidding I realize people do have lives and fun things to do. So this week I chose the pansies ( or at least I think they are ) from Botanical Bookplates vol. 2 and went to work. My card has a base of olive green and a mat of purple that I ran through my machine using a embossing folder from SU called Fancy Fans which I really love. Cut an oval, stamped my flowers, did a bit of coloring with my colored pencils and finished off with some lavender ribbon and sentiment from the Zinnia set and a punch to set it off. Finished quickly. Liar, liar, pants on fire...it took a bit of time to get it all together but there you have it.
Hope your week will be a goodie...since it's so hot I will head for the pool and sit in the sun to keep my glowing tan which looks like I just returned from a romantic place on the ocean. What a joke huh? But a girl can dream now can't she! Happy week fellow bloggers.

Beautiful mom! Such rich colors!
Hey there mama of birthday gal, dishrag, an A+ crafter! Hot week past and current give extra punch to all your colorful work, Pat! Thanks for hanging in there when the rest of us were off doing the summer week thing!! Faces are our ATC upcoming theme swap so your lovely refreshing smiling pansies stole the show for me. Being a wee outside the box, a face distinguished by birds in flight against a sunset of blues and pinks at all the right spacings is my ATC theme find which will be backed on the info side by your suggested pansies. Thanks bunches, rubbermaid! Blessings on your week. Keep Looking UP!
Pat, your purple card is beautiful! Perfect take on the Sketch! Thanks for joining in the fun :) !!! Hugs ~S~

I too like the embossing folder you used to add texture to your card. It looks like an overlay. Pretty! Keep your cool and have fun in the sun.
Love your embossed background and beautiful purple pansies! Thanks for joining us!
LOL! I can't tell if your having enough fun or not while stamping ;) Your card is colored beautifully and I love the embossed background! But my favorite part is the gorgeous purple colored paper you chose to emboss!
