Retro Sketches have a sketch this week that was certainly a challenge to me. I don't want all cards this time of year to be Christmas themed. So I chose a color that I am not that confident with: peach. Actually, it didn't start that way. I started with the circle and how to embellish it. I love these flowers from Prima. In my stash I had this blue fabric strip. I have NO idea where that came from. Remember I've been doing this for 20 years and there are some memory lapses. I pulled the other colors from the strips on the blue fabric and that's where the peach comes in. Of course I used an embossing folder on the lighter peach. I sponged orange Momento Dew Drops onto the green. The sentiment is from a stamp set from My Favorite Things. Don't you love that huge button? Normally I would show the inside, but it's late and I haven't completed that yet.
