I made a birthday card for this week’s sketch challenge using the Hand-Penned Stamp Set and Designer Series Paper.
This is the sketch I used from the Atlantic Hearts weekly challenge. I had a bit of a struggle with this one but that’s what I like about these sketch challenges; they push me to make something a little different than I normally would make.
The images in the Hand-Penned Petals Stamp Set look like they were water-colored and they match so well with the paper.
