I knew I wanted to use this image for a card for Sandy, but I needed a layout, so I went back to the Sketch Challenge archives and found SC77 from 2009. I used a combination of art markers and watercolor pencils for the flowers and added Crystal Glaze Coat to the jar to give it a glassy look.

Those flowers have such a lovely delicate look. I really like how you added the hummingbird. Beautiful card for Sandy. Aren't those sketch resources the best?

great choice of the jar of flowers and the background and embossed section and looks like your hummer is heading for your flowers--which is a good thing

I love going back to old sketches for inspiration. And I love your card. That little hummingbird hovering over your vase of pretty flowers is a great addition!
