Just Us Girls #222 - Sketch



This week over at JUGS, Nancy has a sketch for us.

I used a Gina K Designs set, Garden Silhouettes with an emboss resist technique.  I kind of struggle with sympathy cards as they should be soft and muted.  Not sure this is soft enough, but I am going with it.  I do like these silhouetted flowers.

Does the sketch inspired you? Come on over and play in the Just Us Girls Challenge - we would love to see your creation~



Thanks for stopping by~
