Pink and Brown .......

Two of my favourite colours, so when a challenge came up from Moving Along With The Times to use them it wasn't to difficult. The sketch was good and with the opportunity to put your own slant on it I did just that.

Photobucket

I've cut and folded a 6 x 6 from brown card stock then punched the edges with EK Success border punch Scalloped Diamond (Bee Crafty). Added a piece of pink card that I embossed with the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder. Using the offcuts of both I made a small matted layer to go across the bottom finishing it off with a narrow strip of two tone brown ribbon. Taking a die cut "S" and covering it with a piece odd patterned paper from the scraps drawer, sanded and inked the edges with Distress Ink then added a couple of stamped images. Then to complete the sketch a layered square put behind the "S" and a couple or 3 flowers added to represent the circles on the sketch..............Voila...
