Epic Day Secret Garden Pansy RIC#58

This is the second card I made for the combined CAS(E) This Sketch #73 and Runway Inspired Challenge #58 . As mentioned in my previous blog post , the patterned paper triangle pieces in this card were the scrap from cutting out the half hexagon shape used in the first card. Unlike the first card, it worked in this card to put the flowers from the sketch in. I already had the flowers in my "left over stash", ie the ones that didn't get used on previous cards because either they were just the extras I made in case I needed them, or the end result wasn't what I imagined so they didn't get used. I should really put these into jars because "my flowers jar" sounds better than "left over stash", but I digress...The leaves were from the Bird Builder Punch (#117191) and then inked up with En Francais  (WM #128562, CM #127790) in Crumb Cake colour. I am not sure if you can see there is actually faded details on the crumb cake hexagon portion...

This card is made for the CAS(E) This Sketch Challenge #73 : As you can see, it is combined with the latest Runway Inspired Challenge , which is new to me, so it will be my first time entering in their challenge. How was I inspired? * I have been learning that a sketch is just a springboard for ideas...in this case, I chose to replace the half circle shape with a half hexagon shape. Why? Because... * the geometric designs on the model's shorts in the Runway Inspired Challenge brought to my mind the Epic Day DSP. The recent Patterned Paper Mini Class at Stamp Nation is still very fresh in my mind so it's no surprise my thoughts turned to using patterned paper for any card I was going to make next :-) * I tried to use buttons, flowers and other shapes but it didn't work for me so I decided to omit that part of the sketch. * I had a bit of a challenge with finding the right sentiment - either the size of the sentiment isn't right or the sentiment itse...
