Hi! How are you all doing? I am still trying to climb out of a big ol pile of catch up! We are enjoying the lazy days of summer, however not so lazy on our end. So having said that, I apologize once again for not getting around to your lovely crafty blogs!
The Cupcake Craftroom is sponsoring Tuesday Morning Sketches this week, and the Design Team was asked to play along.
Here is my card using papers from the Flourish Collection. I always like to be slightly "different". *wink*
I made a tall card as my take on the sketch! Ever so often, I will pull myself out of the routine of making a standard A2 size card. I started with a kraft card base adding some white paint for a shabby touch.
Using some material I had on hand, I created a flower embellishment adding a button and blue rose to the center.
I took a Library card pocket and covered it with the solid light blue papers from Cupcake Craftroom adding a rectangle of the polka Pastel Blue to the center distressing all the edges. I paper pieced a pitcher using the Flourish paper in pink embellishing with a button and pearl. Some Crochet Trim was added to the bottom of the focal image on the library pocket for a finishing touch.
Inside the pocket, I have created a sentiment tag with Flourish papers.
I love this Flourish line! It is so pretty and fits my style! All of the papers you see here come in one collection and you get more paper patterns and colors than I have displayed. I believe there is over 60 papers in this collection. You can print them out as much and as often as you like! Love that!
Here is the Tuesday Morning Sketch.
I am also joining in at Dynamic Duos.
Well that is it for me. Hope you join along the fun if you have a chance.
Have a terrific Tuesday!

Tammy - love your card. I love how you thought outside the box and your interpretation of the sketch is awesome. Thank you so much for supporting me and Tuesday Morning Sketches. ~Hugs~
Such a creative design Tammy. Thanks for joining us at Dynamic Duos this week.
You rock, Tammy! Love your take on the sketch - it is perfect as a long card! Love the idea of the pocket sentiment, and the big fluffy fabric flower is awesome :)
I got a mental picture of a cartoon lady floundering in a pile of ketchup...so I HAD to share just in case it made you smile too!
Gorgeous flower! And what a cute idea to hide the tag in a pocket! Great card!

Love how you made the sketch your own. So happy you joined us this week at Dynamic Duos!
Let me tell you that blue is my favorite color. I have a place in my heart for damask and floral patterns, I never get tired of polka dots and kraft is another fave. And after telling you this it ain't a surprise that I love every pice of this card!
