Here's the deal... yes, this is a challenging sketch...
Lots of panels.... For the larger panel I laid out several scraps {good way to use scraps} onto a basic gray layer. For the middle panel I cut a gray panel, a bit smaller, and laid out some matching scraps in a diagnonal... adhered and die cut with a SB nestabilitie labels 23 {love this shape}. Once this was done I wanted to make the panels pop against the background so I cut another larger label 23 die to place behind. Sentiment, from WMS Compact Sentiments, don't you just adore the different fonts.... and this set has some fabulous sentiments!! The sentiment was stamped in basic gray onto an oval nestie and layered on top of a smaller labels 23, the corners were stamped with versamark using a small leaf image from WMS Teeny Trees!! Claire always adds/fills her sets with images... hence, the little leaf image here that was tucked into the set. Waltzingmouse Stamps link here.
Here's the sketch....
