Get Sketchy challenge

When I had my Blanket Stitched set out yesterday I didn't want to put it away and decided to play with it one more time, this time paper-piecing the flowers for Joni's first sketch challenge at Wplus9.


supplies: Wplus9's Blanket Stitched Blossoms, papers from Echo Park's Bundle of Joy Girl Dots & Stripes pad and yellow from Lawn Fawn's Let's Polka pad, MFT Stitched Tag die, enamel dots from Doodlebug and Teresa Collins, my own plank background (see Thursday's post this week for how I made it), pink gingham ribbon

These little flowers are so fun to play with; they're just the right size to paper-piece, and I'm very pleased with the way this turned out!  I love my dots, and just had to add a little bit of gingham ribbon to the mix!  Here's Joni's fun sketch.  I'm so glad they're starting up some challenges again over at Wplus9!


And I'll also enter it into The current Card Concept challenge, because of the planking background and the colors I used.  I'd put this into the Clean & Layered Style.
