You Mean The World To Me {MTSC77}





Hi there everyone!  It's Tuesday and it's time for another one of Mercy's fabby sketches!!  I LOVE this week's sketch!  So many possiblities!  I used a color combo of Kraft, Pure Poppy and White and paired it with a new beautiful set from Verve called One Person.  I heat embossed the flower with white embossing powder on vellum cardstock and colored it from behind.  The circle with the flourish was also heat embossed with white embossing powder on Kraft cs and cut out.  I rounded all the corners with my Corner Chomper....told you I was addicted!

For more inspiration using this sketch, don't forget to check out the other Muse's!

Love the colors you chose, Jackie! I'm thinking I must have one of those corner chompers...love when all four corners are rounded (and my puny corner rounder won't do double thickness CS).
