Hello! I am playing along with the Freshly Made Sketches Challenge this week.
I followed the sketch very closely. I found the patterned papers in my stash, which became the starting point for choosing colors. This card uses a lot of product I’ve had for many years, and many of the supplies are now retired. I bought the Stampin’ Up stamp set For All Things specifically for this sentiment!
I’m sure I sound like a broken record, but I really like these sketch challenges! It gives me a chance to pull something together in a different way, and I find myself using products that I might otherwise ignore.
What I like about this card: I like the combination of patterned papers and the manner in which the die-cut leaves and circles reinforce the colors in the patterned paper. Now if only it was this easy to find clothing in these colors!
Cardstock: Stampin’ Up Tranquil Tide, Hello Honey, Tangerine Tango, Baked Brown Sugar, Cajun Craze
Stamp: Stampin’ Up For All Things (retired)
Dies: Lawn Fawn Stitched Leaves, Lawn Fawn Small Stitched Leaves, Spellbinders Circle Dies (1.375″)

Your colors are perfect. Sometimes it takes me hours to find the right shade. Great card, you nailed the challenge!
Looks like a winner to me. Great take on the sketch.
