Sketch Challenge 217

Good afternoon everyone!

It is a gorgeous day here today! The temp is 60 degrees and sunny! I can't wait for Spring to arrive!!

Here is the card I made for today's Sketch Challenge on SCS. I have been thinking about this one all day while I was at work. I bought this American Craft dp called Metropolitan the other day so I started with this for my inspiration. I went with the colors of Real Red, Basic Black and Baja Breeze. I used the images from Pocket Silhouettes for my three image squares. I stamped three of the images in the three colors and adhered them with pop dots, The panel underneath is just Basic Black with the scallop edge punch used and a Real Red. The sentiment was stamped in Tuxedo Black and I used SU oval punches. I stamped the one remaining images over the sentiment in Baja Breeze. I didn't add any embellies because I felt the dp was bold and busy enough.
I did the inside of the card also. I just went with a piece of WW and the dp with one edge of it with the scallop punch. I then stamped one of the images id Baja Breeze along the bottom.
Thanks for stopping by!
