The Global Design Project this week is sketch challenge,

For this a simple sketch design I was not sure what colours to use after I had decided on the card I would make, so after some thought and trying different colours I decided on Whisper White cardstock for the Base, with Gold Foil Sheets embossed using the Decorative Dots emossing folder. For the next layer die cut a piece of Whisper White cardstock using the Hexagon Hive Thinlits die then attaching it to the Gold Foil emboss piece then adhere to the base card using Stampin’ Dimensionals. adhere a strip of Gold Foil to the top of card.  On a piece of Whisper White cardstock stamp the Frame from the Rose Wonder stamp set and Sharing in your Sorrow greeting from the Thoughts & Prayers stamp set  using the VersaMark ink pad then heat embossed with the Gold Stampin’ Embossing powder. Then die Cut the greeting piece using the frame from the Rose Garden Thinlits Dies, adhere to the gold strip. For the flowers I used the Petite Petals stamp set embossed using VersaMark ink pad and the Gold Stampin’ Embossing powder.the punched out using the Petite Petals Punch.
