… I make a card I don’t like initially, and then, for whatever reason, it grows on me. Such is the case with this card, which is my take on Unscripted Sketches #27. As for what I didn’t like, I don’t know what it was. Perhaps I thought the flower was too cutesy for the rather sophisticated patterned paper. I dunno. It looks fine to me today. I colored my flower with markers, using Garden Green, Holiday Red, and Cranberry.
Materials & Tools: Colonial White and Black cardstock; Studio 45 Communiqué Collection Society Page; Black, Bamboo, and Brown Bag ink pads; Hero Arts Special Moments Cling stamp; CTMH Thank You set and retired Speckled Background stamp; Grosgrain ribbon from Wal-Mart; Black Bigger Brads and mini brads; Sponge dauber; 3M foam mounting tape.
It’s been a quiet Monday, and I’m looking forward to it staying that way. I hope yours has been a good day, too. With that, I’m off to have a bite to eat and then, see if I’ve got any mojo. You’ll find out tomorrow! Until then, take care!

I think it's wonderful! I love the colors (of course!) and the way you can "almost" read the background paper (am I the only one that tries?)
and the rose is gorgeous! The shading on the focal image is excellent, too! It's a GREAT card!
hugs!
Very pretty Kathi!
Such a beautiful card, Kathi! Great coloring skills.
Well, right off the bat, I think it's absolutely gorgeous.
Have a great day tomorrow.
I think that the card is elegant.
I really like that flower. Something about the way the leaves are on the stem. I just like it. Time for bed. These 12 hour days are giving me no time to play.
That flower is rather stunning Kathi and it draws the eye! Beautiful take on this weeks sketch at Unscripted!!
Glad you are having a quiet evening..they are the best kind.
Such a lovely card! I love the pop of red!
I think it's gorgeous from the get-go. Your coloring is awesome!
Kathi I love this card. Reminds me of an outfit I had when I was in school. My mom made me a black and white checkered/houndstooth jumber and I wore a red shirt with it...then the jumper became a shirt later because of the length hehe. LOVE the flower on it so well colored. WAY TO GO!!
