Cute Bugger

Hello  Hello
It's another sketch challenge at
Try Stampin' (or not) on Tuesday.
(see sketch below)

with an optional theme of favorite patterns.

I have to say ... I tend to gravitate to florals and I love a polka dot.  So I used florals in the dry and wet embossing and the swiss dot accent piece.

For my card, I started with a stamp from Bugaboo. and I used both colored pencils and markers on the image.  I trimmed that down and rounded the corners and mounted it on a coral scrap of cs.
The next layer is stamped with a mandala flower stamp by Hampton Arts.  I stamped it randomly on a white piece of scrap and used white embossing powder.   I then blended Fired Brick, Carved Pumpkin and Mustard Seed distress inks across the piece and rounded those corners as well.
The yellow polka dot printed paper is from Simple Stories and carrying over the rounded corners.
The black cs front panel was dry embossed with a flower folder by Darice.
The sentiment was stamped on a black piece of scrap with white embossing powder and a stamp by Stampendous.
All was set on a rust orange cs, side fold base.  I added clear crystals randomly about to finish it off.

Here is the sketch.


Have fun playing along.
