Here's my attempt:

Lynda's February card challenge Febchallengecard

Didn't have a scroll which would show up on black, so did a turned-down corner instead. And I found some ovals in my box of geometric-shapes. Papers are BG Sugar Rush (bought 3 part-used BG pads on eBay).

Had to check the sketch to see what you meant there about the scroll, you could stamp in silver/gold, if you wanted to do another version, for whom I have no idea LOL next year perhaps
lovely warm colours

Well, that is praise indeed, Kim! It's a useful idea if you just need that extra something in the top RH corner.

Yes, did think about stamping in silver or gold, Karelyn, but didn't want to introduce a metallic. Also thought about using a scroll stencil and white marker, but somehow white didn't seem right. Probably I used the wrong colours!

Oh I like that! Sketches are supposed to be open to interpretation anyway.

Smashing Lynda. It looks super.

Turned down corners is one of my fave techniques, I often use it and it looks great here.
