This is my card made using the sketch for the current Sketch and Stash challenge. Most of the elements in this are 'new' or unused. The bp's are a mixture of Crafters Companion (never used before) and Funky Fairies. The cross stitch isn't real. It's just drawn on with a fine line marker pen. The blocks round the edge of the peach piece are stamped on. The strip across the bottom is from a Joanna Sheen paper pad which I've had for ages and not used before. The WOJ stamp I have used before. This time I've coloured it with Inktense Pencils - I didn't have them when I last used this stamp - so that probably qualifies as 'neglected'. The really new element is the flower embellishment which has been punched with my Nellie Snellen punches, which only arrived on Saturday. I saw them first on Jem's blog and they are brilliant as they punch and then emboss.
Thank you for visiting today.

This is just gorgeous Beryl, I tend to shy away from using several patterned papers on the same card but you really know how to do it.

Evening Beryl, I'm sorry I haven't visited lately, I know what you mean about the year flying already.
You've made some beautiful cards, I love the black and sparkly one, what lovely EP and this is gorgeous. The cross stitch is so effective, it looks real and the WOJ images are always one of my favourites. Your colours remind me of spring, which I hope is just round the corner!!
Happy Crafting

This card is wonderful Beryl. I love those background papers, especially the daisy one. I've not seen those punches before but they do look great.

Hey there Beryl,
Love how you coordinated shapes in this card. The daisies and the scallops jive, the hand-drawn cross stitching in several places, and the colors work together really well. You made a really great girly card and emptied your stash a little...LOL! Love and hugs, Martha
