For the final challenge of October – Vicki has brought us a great sketch with so many possibilities! Can’t wait to see what your imagination comes up with, please share your card with us on our CAS Colours & Sketches blog.

I don’t know if it the image of a cloud or what did it – but my mind went straight to a dandelion – the right brain can go in very bizarre directions. Anyhoo, welcome back to the heart of summer. Lets wander in the garden one last time before we go head first into winter/holiday creations. This card uses two different stamp set – Garden Wishes (the Dandelion) and the sentiment comes from a Sale-A-bration (new retired) stamp set called In Your Words. Inside the card I stamped the same dandelion image but added the floating away pappus stems.

Plain and simple – the image and sentiment are stamped in Old Olive – and die cut with the Stitched Rectangles die set and the sentiment from the Ornate Frames dies set.
