Dainty Flowers – Sketch Challenge

Last weekend I took part in the Creativity Abound Stamp Camp, our Theme for the camp was BY the Bay Suite. Besides creating cards with the themed suite we also have challenges for the participants to take part in. Tracy Held from the team designed this a Sketch Challenge for us to recreate in any products we wanted.

This is my take on her challenge using the Dainty Delight Bundle and Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper.

The Dainty Delight Bundle is found in the 2023 Stampin’ Up! Mini Catalogue $ 96.25 (AUD) By purchasing the Dainty Delight Bundle, allows you to choose an item for FREE from the Sale-A-Bration Catalogue and why not make that the Dainty Flowers DSP.

Sale-A-Bration finishes at the end of February, see below for Catalogues and recently added products.
