My base is Naturals White cardstock. Then I've adhered a length of frayed Burlap Ribbon vertically down the centre. On top of that I've mounted a window shape on dimensionals. It's a double window with the base having been cut from the new In-Color, Lost Lagoon, and the next layer having been cut from Whisper White. On the Whisper White I've stamped a shape from the Work of Art stamp set in Baked Brown Sugar and Lost Lagoon. I off-stamped twice with each to give the background a more subtle look.
On that I stamped a portion of the sandpipers from the Wetlands stamp set and at the sides, stamped the bullrushes. I finished by stamping "Thinking of You" using Lost Lagoon and sponging the edges with Baked Brown Sugar ink.
To finish I took the bits left over from fraying the Burlap Ribbon and mounted clusters using glue dots and topped them with Candy Dots.

You really nailed this sketch Heidi. Nicely done. I like the Wetlands stamp set and this really gives it an outdoorsy, manly kind of look. Perfect! TFS.
