Basic Grey meets Friday Sketchers (again)


For my second image wallet of the weekend I decided to use my favourite BasicGrey "Two Scoops" papers, and hoped I could co-ordinate them nicely with this week's sketch for Friday Sketchers #24. This week's BasicGrey Challenge #7 is stitching, so I had a go with faux stitching on my background square. This is my Docrafts monthly image swap wallet, so I hope my partner likes it.




I used: main image is Penny Black "Tender Hug" coloured with watercolour pencils and decorated wtih Papermania gems; sentiment is diecut from Cuttlebug "Forever Friends" cut'n'emboss folder; papers are basicGrey "Two Scoops"; pearlised lemon cardstock embossed wtih Cuttlebug "Floral Fantasy" folder; flowers by Prima; buttons, ribbons and dragonfly brad from my stash.
