Lovely

Good afternoon everyone! Keeping the Best sketch #72 reveal has gone live, and I have my inspiration page to share with you.
For this page I used MME "Lost and Found 3" papers. On the background I've done some stenciling with a Crafter's Workshop stencil and heavy gesso. I used a heat gun to dry it; I wanted it to bubble up for more texture and interest. I also stenciled with a Prima chalker and a Prima stencil. Then I did a little random stamping in black with a 3rd Eye stamp "Full of words." The chipboard butterflies are from Heidi Swapp. The large white flower is from Manor House and the smaller ones are a mix of Prima and Wild Orchid crafts, as well as a few from my stash. I believe the washi tapes are from Queen and co. and Recollections.
I matted the top photo with pop dots for dimension, then wrapped the photos together with string for the November challenge at Inkido.
And here's the fantastic new sketch
I hope you get a chance to join us. Thanks for stopping by! I truly appreciate your time and lovely comments.
