Taylored Expressions Challenge #117

Taylored Expressions is a new challenge for me; I found this one at Alice's blog, and loved the little sentiment tab on the side. Here is the current sketch:



And here is my take on it:


Supplies: HA H2975 Posy Sketch, paper-piecing the vase and using colored pencils for the flowers and leaves, F3343 Gingham Ribbon, stamped because I couldn't fine the right color of real ribbon, PTI sentiment from Vintage Picnic Sentiments, BoBunny Buttercup Dot, Bazzill Mini Scalloped Slate Blue, The Paper Company Primary Blue, unknown white cardstocks, Mark Richards Crystal Stickers white cabochons

Love how you've used this stamp! I have it and hardly ever get it out anymore...you've inspired me to do a little digging in my craft room and get it inky!
