Waltzingmouse Stamps- Sketch Challenge #30

Good morning everyone!! I am soooo glad it's the weekend. We've had a very eventful week and I think today we will just take it easy and chill for a time. Popcorn and a movie later I think ;) 

Today I would like to share with you my DT card for Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenges. It's a wonderful sketch and I really enjoyed the piecing it all together. I'm really loving machine stitching all my papers lately and this one certainly proved a challenge, lol. 


When I started this card I had black & white in my head, but somewhere along the way I got the idea that I wanted to add the red and white hearts and I'm kinda glad I did. I really love the way red pops against the black and white. 


The sentiment was in the paper pack, on a full sheet of playing card sized squares. I thought it was a wonderful sentiment and not one I've seen on a stamp anywhere so I trimmed it down to slot into the sketch design.


Materials
Papers: My Mind's Eye "Meadowlark"

Great colors Sandie - love the red heart against the black and white - super sewing too - mine doesn't always come out even! A movie and popcorn sounds like a great plan!

I agree, adding he heart really gave your already beautiful card that extra little WOW!!! The red pops right off the card and ties it all together.


Thank you for playing along at Freshly Brewed Challenges.
