Saturday Sketch Challenge 8/15

It's that time of week!!!! I love doing these challenges! For today's challenge I followed this sketch. The center panel is a technique called Bargello. It's a needlepoint stitch converted to paper. Looks complicated but it's really easy!

Set: Happy Thoughts

Cardstock: Tempting Turquoise, Summer Sun, Pink Flamingo DSP (I know, I'm using a lot of this but it's just so versatile!!!!)

Ink: Basic Black, Summer Sun

Accessories: Filigree Brads, Metal Edge Tags

Have a great week! We are celebrating Mother's 80th Birthday on Wednesday!!!!!!!!!
