Here's another fun sketch, eh? I had fun with it anyway! I had been wanting to try a little emboss resist this week with the Upsy Daisy stamp set, a set I rarely use for some reason or other.I started out by stamping the A to Z stamp all over the background piece. This stamp is only available until the end of the month as it is in the Occasions Mini! I LOVE this little stamp and will probably keep it for a loooooooooong time as it really is nice for backgrounds. Anyways, then I stamped the floral image with versa mark and heat embossed using Iridescent Ice EP. A simple sponging of Elegant Eggplant nicely finished off that piece :)
I was trying to figure out what colour to match with the purple that wasn't green ... I still ended up using green but I added a bigger touch of yellow with it this time. I had recently gotten some retired DSP through the Clearance Rack on my demonstrator website (click on the link and then "Shop Now" to see!) and just had to break the package open. i don't know why I never got it when it was current ... go figure, eh?
Anyways, please check out the other gals's sketchy creations this week! Thanks for stoppin' in!

Love it! What a cool background. You have a knack for mixing stamp sets. A to Z with Upsy Daisy? Who woulda thought?! The color combo is fabulous as well.
Beautiful job! I love the alphabet background... adds a great effect. =)
BEAUTIFUL.
Just stunning Renee! I love purple and green together. I also know what you mean by not getting something when current. I also do the one where when you first see it it does nothing for you at all. But later you realise you could do so much with it and so you buy it and then 2 months later it is on the retired list. LOL! I do that a LOT.
