Welcome to another HITBH! If you came from Sue Prather's site, I'm glad you are continuing the hop. If you haven't then I hope you'll continue to hop using my links below. No matter what, I'm glad you're here. Today we have a sketch challenge and here is what I created for it...
The Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper did all the work for me! I also used scraps of Highland Heather, Soft Succulent and Merry Merlot. I embossed each strip with the Thanks & Hello EF, Tasteful Textile 3D EF and Timeworn Type 3D EF.
I cut a circle out of Basic White cardstock with a die from the Layering Circles Dies and stamped the windmill from the Tulip Fields Stamp Set in Gray Granite ink. The "hello" is from the Sweet As a Peach Stamp Set, stamped in Evening Evergreen ink. I adhered it to the card front with mini Stampin' Dimensionals. I used 5 Pastel Pearls for my embellishments. Measurements are listed below the names of the hoppers. I'm entering my card at Krafty Chicks Challenge #601 Week One - Stamp Act.
The inside is plain except for a strip of the DSP.
