Card Sketch #12 Natures Walk

It starts with a sketch, and ends with a beautiful design that would be perfect for a masculine card.

I love the earthy colors, and feel to this one. The sprigs are carefree, and add the right amount for a focal point. The Designer paper has texture, and character. I added vellum to one of the cards to make it a little lighter.

The strips being slanted adds interest I think.

I hope you like this one.
