Leigh is our Hostess With the Mostest this week and gave us another fabby sketch!! I just am amazed at all the wonderful cards The Cat Packers made using this sketch! I was a little scared to start but once I did I completely fell in love with this sketch! There are so many possibilities!!
You can see that I used a couple of different CutUps dies, Sunflower Rosette, Stamp Trio and Inside Pinking and a couple different sets, Nesting and Love Letters from The Cat's Pajamas. It was lots of fun mixing and matching colors, stamps and papers!
I scored the patterned paper to give some definition to each of the squares.
The pretty Seam Binding was dyed using glimmer mist - I love the look of that!
