Madison Avenue Thanks - Unscripted Sketches #201

I had to think about the sketch challenge with Unscripted Sketches here for a while, turning the sketch this way and that, until finally deciding on an approach I would use.  I decided to turn the sketch on its side.
Here is my card:

 

The base of the card is Whisper White, followed by a layer of Rich Razzleberry, and then a layer of Whisper White which had been stamped with the background stamp "Distressed Dots" and Summer Starfruit ink.

The two image panels were adhered to the polka dot background.

Each image panel was a combination of DSP and a stamped image.  I attached a small piece of  scalloped Rich Razzleberry cardstock between the two just to give the card a bit more interest.  The stamp-a-ma-jig was used to stamp the floral image above the leaves, and to place the center of the flower.  I haven't used the stamp-a-ma-jig much in all the years I've had it, but now that I'm getting more comfortable using it, I find I'm using it more.

Black Magic Thank You - Try Stampin' on Tuesday #99

I seem to have a bit of my mojo back today.  Perhaps my batteries have recharged and I am able to come up with some card ideas.
This card, in which I use the Black Magic Technique (tutorial here) is based on the sketch at Try Stampin' on Tuesday here.  I haven't used that technique for quite a while and felt like trying it again.  All materials used provide you with a sneak peak at the Sale-a-bration products.
