Not sure about this one!

Ever make a card and think....not sure i like this!  Well, I wanted to make a card for this week's Freshly Made Sketch challenge, and I also wanted to use one of the new Sale-A-Bration sets, Sprinkled Expressions.  So I challenged myself to make it work!



I did take some liberties with the sketch;  I was determined to create a card with this set...although i will admit I found it challenging and not sure I really like how it ended up!



Anyway....I am on the hunt for samples using this set!  I think it may be better suited towards gift tags...maybe I will try that!


stamps:  Sprinkled Expressions
cardstock:  Poppy Parade, Whisper White, Vellulm
inks:  Versamark, Poppy Parade
tools/accessories:  White Embossing Powder, pearls, Square Lattice embossing folder

    Funny Lauri - I wonder about whether I like a card just about all the time! But I don't think you need to wonder about this one. This is a great way to use this stamp set.

    You've done a great job Laurie, firstly the colours - red and white a super striking combination, add some vellum for a subtle contrast, white embossing for the centre panel "pop" and an embossed background ... gorgeous!
