It is Thursday and time for a new Create with Connie & Mary Challenge.  This week it is a sketch challenge.

I recently received the Delightfully Eclectic DSP and the designs in this paper pack are so pretty.  I love the colors and patterns so much and am thinking that I might need to snag another pack while it is still on sale.  

Stripes and florals make me happy!  This sweet color combination of Bubble Bath and Garden Green just makes it even better.  Did you notice the little Garden Green border?  I used the Basic Borders die to make it.  I like that little border to add a little visual separation between the 2 patterns.  The lovely leaf is from the Gorgeously Made dies and the sweet little flowers were cut using the Crafting With You dies.  I  like that little flower die and have been using it a lot.  The flowers were made with the Soft Shimmer Paper Combo Pack  and a rhinestone center.  The Soft Shimmer Paper in Bubble Bath was also used for the strip along the side of the card.  The little Bubble Bath ribbon is from the 3/8" Sheer Ribbon Pack.  The ribbons come in Azure Afternoon, Bubble Bath and Lemon Lolly and there is a delicate strip of silver along the edges.  

I wanted to show you how pretty the Soft Shimmer paper is.  I know I haven't captured it with this photo.   It is shimmery but not necessarily glittery.

Inside of the card I added another Garden Green border and a strip of the lovely striped paper.  I love having a stash of cards that can be used for lots of different occasions.  

Thank you for stopping by and be sure to check out what the rest of the Create with Connie & Mary Design team  made with this sketch.
