Friend... you're the Best

I've made this card for the following 2 challenges :
Freshly Made Sketches and Color Throwdown card challenge.
I almost didn't make a card for this week because I found out yesterday that my dad passed away. But then I decided that maybe it would help me get my mind off of it to make it, so here it is.
The layout design is for the freshly made sketches challenge and the colors I used are for color throwdown challenge.
I used a patterned paper from my Dots, stripes, & plaids matstack, followed by a glossy black cardstock for a border behind the white front.
For my theme, I used black ink to stamp on the flowers and then I used copic markers to color them in. Both the flowers and the sentiment is from Petals from scratch clear stamp set by Fiskars.
I hope you like my card and have enjoyed your visit to my blog. Please visit again. Thanks for stopping by..

Happy for you!

For this card, I chose a yellow blank card. Then I added an olive green and a black behind the white.
For the background picture, I used black ink to stamp on a flower from my Fiskars Flora clear stamp set. Then I used a yellow watercolor marker to color in the flowers, giving it a nice background.
I used a scalloped oval framelit, which is highlighted on the edges with Spanish Olive chalk ink by versa magic.
The sentiment is from my Fiskars Petals From Scratch clear stamp set, which is stamped on with black ink.
I also added black and yellow bakers twine behind the sentiment. I also added a black brad on all 4 corners.
This completes my card.

The stamp set that was used for the flowers, leaves, and sentiment is from the Petals from scratch clear stamp set.
