Just for You - Unscripted Sketches 102

This week's challenge with Unscripted Sketches here has a piggyback attached to it i.e. there is an additional element to the challenge.  Because of Earth Day, the challenge is to add a recycled element to the card or project.  On my card I chose to use a page from an old dictionary.


Unscripted Sketches #102


                                                                                   Stamp: Teeny Tiny wishes
Ink: Chocolate Chip
Papers:  Chocolate Chip, Very Vanilla, Regal Rose, Old Page from dictionary, Pear Pizzazz
Accessories: Elegant Lines embossing folder, Scallop circle punch, 5 Petal punch, Beautiful wings embosslit, 1/2" Regal Rose Taffeta Ribbon, Word Window Punch, Modern Label Punch, Pearls, spritz

Flowers: Punch 6 scallop circle punches from old dictionary page, and one from Regal Rose card stock.  Spritz with water, and crumple.  Gently straighten them up and let them dry.  When dry, sponge edges with chocolate chip ink.  Stack them up together, and pierce a hole in the middle.  Put a brad in the hole.  Gently scrunch up the layers one at a time, and then unscrunch them.  Spritz with homemade spritz (rubbing alcohol and a few drops of shimmer paint). Adhere ro card with tombo glue.

Here's a close up of the flower
