FMS #53 Happy Hello

I love this week's sketch from Tui! This is such a fun way to use up some scraps you have laying on your desk.
I decided to use some designer paper (from International Bizarre) along with some ribbon for all of those strips behind my sentiment panel. I had so much fun picking out these colors. I was looking for something bright, happy and warm.
I wanted to add a little pop of color, so I created a little flower embellishment using my Floral Frames Framelits and an In Color Dahlia. I also added a little paper piercing using my Stampin' Pierce Mat and Essentials Paper-Piercing Pack - so easy and it added just the right touch.

Thanks for stopping by today! Hop on over to the Freshly Made Sketches blog to see the other wonderful creations from the design team. 'Bye for now!
