Everything But the Kitchen Sink

I liked the EBKS sketch, and decided to use a new and an old Hero Arts stamp. The cling Flower Box is paper-pieced, pop-dotting the biggest flower, and also raising the panel above the card.

Supplies: CG127 Flower box, E4147 Sunshine and Flowers

    Oh I love how you designed this. Not only are the colors so bright and beautiful but you used a darker color for the sentiment. Most often the sentiment is left white or blank. I love that you "shook" it up a little! Oz

    LOVE your paper piecing on this and what a wonderful mix of greens, purples, and oranges, such a good blend! I know what you mean by paper piecing the tiny leaves...a true work of patience! ;)
