Create A Smile Stamps Sketch Challenge

Welcome to another challenge for Create A Smile Stamps!  The challenge for the next two weeks is a sketch:

I'm becoming quite the fan of sketch challenges. It really gets the creative juices flowing!  I pretty much followed the sketch to a tee but you can easily change things up. Flip the sketch or use a different shape. Find your inspiration and see where it goes!

I used the largest flower from the Botanical Love Stamp Set for the focal point. I used Versamark Ink to stamp the bloom all over the centre panel which is 5.5 X 3.75 inches.  I cut the Magical Frame Die out of white cardstock and using Versafine Black Onyx Ink, I stamped the flower onto the centre part of the die.

I dusted off my pencil crayons (what we call coloured pencils, ha) and coloured up the flower.

I added the outer frame of the die onto the grey panel first (which I cut out of craft foam, as well) and place the coloured piece to the inside.  I stamped the "smile" in the Onyx Black ink as well and fussy cut around it.  I adhered exactly as the sketch suggests.

I adhered the focal panel onto a white card base, added a few white gems from Studio Katia and a bit of glitter pen to the flowers. And we can call this card, done!!
