Freshly Made Sketches Challenge 402

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!
