Verve WCD Challenge VSWCMD5 and Curtain Call {Act 50}

When I saw the Verve sketches, I knew I just had to play along for WCD! Here is the sketch...


...combined with this fantastic color combo from Curtain Call....


And here is my card...

IMG_7435

I embossed the back layer with a Quickutz folder and then turned it over for the debossed side!  I think it gives it a whole different look just by turning it over!

And again, I chalked up the main image with Pebbles chalks with the nestie still in place!  I love that framed look!

Ooh, I really like the colors togather and that flower looks great. Another great card! And don't you just love the sketches? I think they really make it easy for me to create. They're just really good. I've already used two of them!

This is awesome Laurie. I usually don't go for the sketches that something has to be "tilted" but I need to do this.....just don't tilt it! Love the background stamping you did on the panels.
