STAMPlorations Sketch challenge #17

This is my second post today - please scroll down (or click HERE) for the House of Cards post there is a challenge starting there today too!
---

I just love the STAMPlorations sketches - they are always a little different from what else is out there in blog land and make you think differently. This sketch I really liked.



I used the using Boxed Blooms and Bold Sentiments set here. I first stamped the daisy with Versamark and heat embossed it in white. I then took a square punch and some recycled card stock to use as a stencil and sponged in yellow. I rotated the stencil and masked off the yellow square and sponged the remaining triangle in orange and repeated it once more to sponge in pink. I outlined the squares with a black pen to give it more definition and stamped the sentiment. Splattered black and yellow all over the card and added the enamel dots. 

Here is the sketch:

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it. And here is a close -up: Challenges: Dynamic Duos CAS Colours and Sketches Addicted to Stamps and More Amusing Challenges Materials: Papertrey Background Basics: Super Stripes, Memory Box Chloe Stem die. --X-- Card for Maddy: You may know already about  Maddy ,  who  was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and went through chemotherapy treatment followed by a stem cell transplant from her (then) fifteen year old sister Melanie.  She now has a relapse and this car
