This is a past MFT sketch that I really liked and I still wanted to use it. These colours are so fresh and lovely and just screaming summer, which of course, it isn't here, it is rainy and grey. But there is a remedy for that - going to the Craft Show - it is one of the very few we get, so I shall make the most of it.

I am trying to incorporate more patterned paper into my cards, afterall, I have alot to use up. So with the Hero Arts challenge in mind and the Jillibean Soup pad still out I came up with this design for the latest Sweet Sunday sketch. I coloured the flowers with Memento markers, a trick Jennifer McGuire did a few months back. Whilst it didn't give the crispness of Copics, I am happy with the results.
