April Sketch for Sugar Creek Hollow
It is another Sensational Saturday at Sugar Creek Hollow and this week we have our monthly sketch for you.
I used a combination of papers from the Cappella collection by Basic Grey along with some embossed card stock to create the panels. The sheet music that I found online is framed by a piece made with the Martha Stewart deco fan Punch Around the Page set. Then I added some lovely satin ribbon and pearls to finish it off. I think this is pretty clean but elegant.
I am going to enter this card in the following challenges:

Cec, I love your embossing and sheet music DP. This was one of the first stamps that I ever used from SCH and I still love it. Great job coloring the wood.
