Inspirational Card Sketchers 20

This week ICS have a fab sketch, don't know why but this morning I woke up thinking brown and turquoise ........ sad I know, dreaming craft, but I know for a fact that I'm not alone here, so of course this was the basis for my card.

DP's are K&Co and the image one I've had for years from Hampton Arts DF4513 - it's called 'Fan's hat' so figure this is Fanny wearing it ? The image is stamped in versamark and embossed with detail copper onto a Glimmer Misted background of ........ you've guessed, turquoise and brown - well actually creme da chocolate if we are being exact. I added a piece of lace an a flower in Fanny's hat.

I love this If I am being honest I think you could of done with out the flower as it doesn't match! and the stamp is just so yum it doesn't need it (thats just my opinion) I love everything else about it! I also love the orniment you used this goes perfect with the scene, turquoise and brown are one of my fav colour combos. well anything with brown (chocolate is FAB) orange pink are also my favs lol

Love Dawn xx
