Good morning! I'm back with a new sketch today! This week's layout is meant to be a long card. I designed the sketch as 3.5x6 inches, however, my card ended up being more like 4x6 (I don't have the exact measurements, as it is being delivered to a new home today). Here's the sketch: And here's my card: I kept looking at all the Haiku paper I had picked up, so I decided to use a bit of that! I still absolutely love the freshness of the colours in that line! Originally I was going to stamp something and cut it out, but I didn't have anything that matched exactly, so I ended up using these flowers from one of the papers! Supplies:

• Stamps: Birthday Basics
• Ink: Tangerine Tango
• Paper: Haiku DSP, Kraft, Tangerine Tango
• Accessories, etc.: Pop Dots, Scalloped die
