Sketchy Gigi

Wow, it's amazing how things in life can sneek up on you and just pile up! Had a bit on my plate, but I managed to finish enough to play a little bit today and have some posts lined up for you.

Today's post is for CA&F Sketchy Saturday. Uses my new Gigi stamp that I won from the CA&F 12 Days of Sketches challenges when I made this card. I'll be honest, I bought all the other of the Sprouts that released the same time as Gigi, but she wasn't really my style so I didn't buy her. Guess that gave me one to win then!


See this super cool flower I made?! I've seen them around blogland and decided to give it a try. SUPER EASY!! Punched a few scalloped circles from an old book (on that a horrible read, so I felt justified) and then inked the edges, wrinkled them up, glued them together, then topped them with a button. Ta-da! It also helps me qualify for the FFF to make something "vintage".
Materials
Stamps: TGF Gigi, CTMH Fringed Phrases
Paper: CTMH cs and Veranda dp
Other: CTMH inks, ribbon, hemp, edge distresser. Copics, Nestie, foam tape, misc. button, pearls, liquid pearls.
