Kaisercraft Saturday Sketch Challenge # 5

Hi there,

What a beautiful day it is today in Adelaide, perfect to go and watch a little football :)

I didn't think I was going to get time to do Kaiser's sketch challenge this month, but luckily I managed to fit it in, and glad I it was last minute because I have to say the Fifth Sketch is probably my favourite from them. I really wanted to use the Sweet Pea range this month and didn't have a landscape photo, so I have flipped the photo.


You can see the full details here,



I have used Kaiser Scarlet Cardstock for my base and matting for my photo.  The Patterned Papers and Collectables are Kaiser's Sweet Pea Range. I have Distressed all the edges and them inked them with Frayed Burlap Distress Ink.  I have randomly stamped the Grunge Texture Stamp on my background Paper with Apricot Ink.  The Red Paper Flowers are also Kaiser and lastly for the title I have used Prima Canvas Alphabets.
