Today’s card was inspired by the Freshly Made Sketches challenge. I was wanting to use my Thankful Thinlits Expression Die and thought this sketch would do the trick.
And here is the sketch that inspired me.
About this card
1. I used my brayer with Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry and Soft Suede over the top of the embossed image.
2. I played around with many different colors of Thankful and finally landed on Soft Suede. Honestly I should have started with that to begin with. I added a piece of Pumpkin Pie behind the Sweater Weather DSP to make it all stand out.
3. I also wanted to use hemp twine for my bow but needed a double bow to make it full enough. I just love You Tube. Found a video for tying a double bow using nothing but ribbon and your own fingers.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today.

Lynn – the brayered Beautifully Baroque background is absolutely stunning! And congrats on the double bow! I’m not very good at the single bow. 🙂
