Our hop this time is a sketch hop and is based on this sketch created by Melissa Cash. I like working with sketches and this one was no exception. I went with a very literal interpretation of the sketch, but I can see many possibilites for using it in different ways, and I just may have to try some of them for future cards!
Here is the card I made using the sketch. I was in the mood for something very springy, so here is my "sending you sunshine" card with loads of springtime in it!
Card elements:
Cardstock: Gina K Designs Pure Luxury Grass Green and White
Stampin' Up Cameo Coral
Patterned Paper: Gina K Designs Petals and Wings
Stamps: Gina K Designs Sending You Sunshine
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black and Cantaloupe; Stampin' Up Cameo Coral, Old Olive and Apricot Appeal
