CAS(E) this Sketch 124...Hello

The sketch this week at CAS(E) this Sketch was a bit challenging for me.  Those three slanted lines were hard to interpret.  As I was looking at the possibility of three skinny trees, I found a very old flower in a vase stamp in my drawer (Bloom Vase by Stampendous...press on colored title to take you to ebay, in case you were wondering)  that, although a bit of a stretch in design and content, I thought was cute!!  Here's my card and the sketch...

I flipped my card sideways, making my strips a bit wider.  What I LOVED about this stamp...the flowers are leaning at an angle...in the same direction as the sketch:):)!!!  I stamped and cut out the flowers in their frames, then separate flowers and one set of leaves(the flower without the sentiment across it) and because I messed up on the coloring, stamped and cut out the vases! Colored with my Prismacolor pencils...YES, I could have made the flowers and vases funky, fun colors, but I love black and white polka dots(especially with yellow flowers), and in THIS case...thought less is more:)!!...so... simply and rather basically colored.  Dotted the dots in the flowers with Enamel Accents, the sentiment die is from Reverse Confetti!  Thanks for visiting me today!! Hugs!! Lisa

Thank you so much ladies at CAS(E) this Sketch for naming my card as one of this week's FAVORITES...
I am so appreciative for the recognition!!  Congratulations to all the winners this week...what fun:)!!
