Hi Becky - congrats on winning all those goodies (I too love winning goodies!). You have done a fab job with the sketch and thanks for the tips on the flowers - I have tried to ink the edges of flowers but they don't seem to work out ... maybe I should take your advice and 'lightly' ink them!!!
Thanks for playing with cardabilities for sketch #35 ... hope to see you in the next sketch!
