I wanted to work on some challenges this week, so after looking through my stamps, Oh So Lovely with the Sketch Challenge was perfect!! (Pretend I didn't cheat on the color challenge...lol)
I stamped the flower in Versafine Onyx Black and then watercolored it. Perfect tall image for this sketch! I added panels in the appropriate colors (for the sketch), and thought the sentiment (from Carte Postale) would fit perfectly. I stamped the "Merci" in the blank white space in Versafine Onyx Black as well. Perfect fit!
After a few Diamond Stickles highlights...I think it turned out great! Hope you like it!

Beautiful card as usual, Shannan. I was really sad that Trace didn't win and yes I love that song - even more after seeing it live. I heard it so many times yesterday on the radio. Kim
Me! Me! I did! I did! LOL Todd kept looking away so I think he was getting teary eyed too! I was so upset that he didn't win. This card is gorgeous!!!
I didn't watch him sing on that show, but I do know I nearly cry every time I hear that song on the radio in the car, especially when I'm in a hurry to get the kids to dance or basketball/baseball/football etc. Makes me cry now to think about it! I love the card! Jeanne
STUNNING!!
Love this card! I had never heard that song before I watched the show the other night -- definitely made me boo-hoo too! You know I cry when the wind blows... I'm such a sap!
Dumb Donald Trump -- why'd he have to pick stupid Piers? Blech... At least Trace got an awesome plug...
Gorgeous! Every time I go to buy those swiss dots, they're gonzo.
