I've said before...the Sketch Challenges are some of my most challenging challenges...it is hard for me to think inside triangles or square (tessaduck must be laughing about this!!!). But I have to say thank you, Cathy for one that just caught me in the right kind of thinking!!!
This card is also for the HYCCT1306 Many Colors of Cancer challenge. I made it in honor of a friend who is fiercely battling pancreatic cancer. Purple is the color symbolizing that particular cancer. And purple happens to be her favorite color. I am so proud to be a part of our community drive for cards to MD Anderson Cancer Center. I appreciate this creative challenge, Misti!
The several years old Basic Grey Wisteria papers were just perfect for this card. I dry embossed the large panel. Matted the big bold flowers and used gold staples. A strip of vintage German scrap runs across the blue panel.
Thank you my SCS friends, you truly are precious.

Such a stunning card, Susan. What a variety of elements that all work so well together. Well done.
