Flower Fest Sketch Challenge

I just loved this weeks Sketch Challenge at SplitCoastStampers.  I loved it because it had LOTS of layers.  See the sketch below.  Six layers, count them, SIX!!!  How fun is that?

So what was I going to make?  I still  had the words from the "All Holidays" set sitting out and it fit perfectly in the #6 spot.  I colored the words in using Old Olive, Cherry Cobbler and a Basic Black marker.  I sponged the edges using the Cherry Cobbler ink pad.

The flowers were made using the "Flower Fest" set.  I had not used the big Mum looking flower yet.  There's a few other pieces in that set that I have not used yet too.  The butterfly and a 5 point flower.  I'll have to use them in a card soon so I can say I used every image in the set.  I don't often use every image in a set.  I often buy a set just because of one image in it!!!  Anyone else do that???  I don't want to be alone in that!  LOL  The flowers were made by stamping VersaMark on Cherry Cobbler card stock and then sprinkling white embossing powder on it and heat setting it.  I then cut the three of them out.

The leaves are done the same way as the flowers.  I used Pear Pizazz card stock for them. 

The #2 and #3 layers are done using the Neutrals pack of decorative paper.  

Assembly was easy, I just followed the layer placement on the sketch.  If you have time play with this sketch.  I'm looking forward to seeing what others on SplitCoast have done with the sketch.

Thank you SO much for visiting today,
Wanda
