Freshly Made Sketches #737

 
This week's designer for Freshly Made Sketches #737 is Jen B and
here's her sketch.
 
 
So many possibilities for that central rectangular shape, right? 
I envisioned flowers, a tranquil scene, or an ink blended background. 
I decided to go with numbers on a birthday card.
 

While cleaning up and arranging my "oldies but goodies" I came across Penny
Black's By the Numbers die which was a fave over ten years ago. The die cut was
inked and originally I was going to use rainbow colors but stopped and let the
colors fade out. 
 
I stacked three die cuts together and adhered them to an embossed frame panel.
A white embossed sentiment and iridescent sequins finished off the card.
  
Stop by Freshly Made Sketches for more inspiration from the rest of the team
and join us if you can. You have until Monday, May 25 to link up your card and
we hope to see you in the gallery!
