Another Sketch Saturday for all of you sketch fans this week! Alex is our sketch designer and Bunny Zoe is the sponsor.I have with another card from Penny Black's stamp set, Dahlias. This is a different stamp from the set than was used for the card I posted a couple of weeks ago. This time I used watercolor paper, embossing powder and water based inks to give a watercolor look to my card.
I bought the set when it was available from The Paper Trail, a wonderful online shop that is an especially fabulous resource for Canadian card makers. Chelsea is having a clearance sale, so it's worth popping over for a look.
Speaking of "popping over" - you won't want to miss the great inspiration the Sketch Saturday DT has for you this week. Take some time to relax and play along with us this week!

I love this, Cathy!! Great job with the faux watercoloring - it looks great! Doesn't the embossing help so much with that process?
