VLV Week 1 August Sketch! Great sketch, Amber! For my card I am using Verve's New Mercies and Words Cannot Express stamp sets.  I stamped the large leafy image onto the black cardstock with versamark and clear embossed for a shiny patterned background.  I added some text, torn oval beaded frames, and black embossed the focal sentiment.  I finished with some dyed seam binding and oval cameo bracelet finding that adds just a touch of blue!  In keeping with the oval them, I topped off my bow with an oval button!
