Here's my card for this week's CAS Sketch Challenge. Thanks, Maureen, for a layout! I have a few more ideas spinning around in my head, so I'll be playing along later this week.
I started with a Crumb Cake card base, added a strip of Sweet & Sour Specialty dsp and hid the seam with some Rich Razzleberry Satin Ribbon. I used my Stamp-A-Ma-Jig to stamp the sentiment with Basic Black ink.
Then I went to work on the main panel by stamping the flowers three times with Craft Basic Black ink onto watercolor paper and embossed them with Black Emboss Powder. I colored the flowers with Rich Razzlaberry, Pumpkin Pie and Old Olive markers and my Aquapainter. (Side note - Isn't this color combo awesome?! I got it from SU's Color Coach.) I layered this panel on Old Olive cs and added it to the card with Dimensionals. Finally, I colored the butterfly, cut it out and added it with a Dimensional. I realized that I needed to add a little something to the sentiment, so I pulled out a Pumpkin Pie button and added it to the satin ribbon with a Linen Thread bow.

Regina, that's one of my favorite stamp sets, especially that adorable bird. You used the flowers wonderfully and I absolutely love the colors and how they pop! Incredible my friend!
