CTS #207

Good morning!  I see sunshine out my window this morning while I'm drinking my coffee and it makes me smile.  I hope you are all having a great morning as well.  We have another fun sketch today at CAS(E) this Sketch and I had a great time with it.  However, I tried three or four times to color my stamped image and it just wasn't what I was wanting.  I ended up leaving it black and white but I think it totally works for this sketch.  What do you think:


I used this gorgeous floral image from Concord and 9th but couldn't for the life of me color it the way I had pictured it in my head.  Don't you hate when that happens.  Luckily, I love it just like it is.  :)  I added a simple black banner with just a touch of glitter to add some sparkle and color.  I embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder and popped the banner up with some foam tape.  Simple! 

Thanks so much for checking out my card today and I hope you'll join us over at CAS(E) this Sketch!

    I agree your card is elegant and looks great in black and white. The little touch of sparkle and colour is just the right touch.

    Thank you a zillion times over for leaving these lovely flowers black and white, because I, too, have challenges with colouring...especially an image as pretty as this! Elegant and sophisticated!
