celebrate - flowers in vases

a simple card based on the sketch for this week's retro-sketches #112 (which I flipped horizontally)

stamp of flowers in vases comes from Stampendous - Thinking Bouquet stamp set, whilst the sentiment comes from Paper Smooches - Pretty Phrases stamp set.

Post Note (10 May 2014): I was pleasantly surprised that this simple card was selected as the Rockstar for retrosketches #112 - so very encouraging, thank you!

Card was made for this week's Paper Smooches SPARKS - September 2-8 Trend Watch challenge

inspired by this photo

The stamps of the vases, flower, and leaves came from Paper Smooches "Crystal Clear" stamp set, whilst the 'have faith' sentiment came from the Paper Smooches "Spiritual Sampler" stamp set.

The vases have been embossed using Zing! Metallic Finish embossing powders in purple, pewter and blue colors - creating a lovely texture for this clean single layer card.
