Double Dutch is a new challenge blog for me, but I just couldn't resist playing with this weeks challenge sketch.

Friday Sketchers #4

This is the first time for me to join in with Friday Sketchers. The DT work is amazing, puts my card to shame, but I'm learning and I get loads of inspiration from this blog.

The backing papers are from K & Co, chelsea pad and I used my Cuttlebug stylized flowers just to give a bit more interest. The stamp is from the Sweet Art Ebony collection by Elisabeth Bell which I bought from Funky Kits. I coloured the image in with watercolour pencils. Added a Prima quick pick flower with the centre piece stamped using Stampin Up circle of friendship stamp.
