Kathy's Waffle Sketch - July 2011

I've got to apologise for not posting this card sooner but as they say "better late than never" lol.

This months sketch is a little beauty from Kathy over at Kathy's Waffle Sketch File and I did something I really find difficult to do - make a card without a main character or picture. The sentiment is the focal point on this one.

Here's the sketch:-

...and here's my card:-


Papers from K & Co 'Bailey' Designer Paper and Mat Stack
Sentiment - Melissa Frances
Nestabilities
Retro Flower Punches
Pearls and Brads from Stash

The photo really doesn't do this card justice it looks quite dull but IRL it's very warm and vintagey. I really must get to grips with my photos!

Thanks for looking!

    It's beautiful Lynda, love the colour palette, and I spy a nestabilities die I haven't seen here before! I get the vintage feel from the photo, but I know what you mean I always feel my cards look better in the flesh and wish I was a bit better with the camera!

    Isn't it strange when you have to do something you are not used to.
    But as always you have come up trumps with a lovely card, and it shows the beauty of the papers, the lovely colours and tones of them and the flower just adds that little bit to finish it off.

    Hi Lynda

    A beautiful make.

    Loving the colours and those papers are gorgeous.

    The little bit of paper pricking in the corners is a great little touch too!!!
