Retro Sketches


I recently came across the challenge called Retro Sketches. 


Here is this week's sketch, which has been used for several entries to "Less is More" for the yellow challenge this week.
Needless to say I haven't used the colour from LIM but I thought I would use the colours from The Sunday Stamper Week 204 which are Blue and Brown

I don't know the make of the Paisley stamp, but the Paisley embossing folder is from Cuttlebug, the butterfly is from Stampin' Up and the sentiment from Hero Arts... quite a mixed bunch!

I hope the weather warms up soon!

    Think this is a fab sketch chrissie - might have a go (beats ironing...) - love these colours together and a great paisley stamp- perhaps Perfect Paisley from Stampin' Up?

    Gorgeous card Chrissie, I love the paisley and the blue and brown together. I was tempted to combine retrosketches with my LIM card but didn't in the end xx
