It's not Sunday you may be saying to yourself. It's Wednesday. But I'm playing along (finally) with Karen Giron's Sweet Sunday Sketch! I've been wanting to play along with her sketch's for weeks now. And today I was able to play!!
Here's my card:
I have to thank dear Lindsay M. for my having to have this stamp. It's one of the newest from Memory Box. As soon as I saw THIS card by Lindsay I knew I needed to buy this stamp as soon as possible. I was pressed for time this morning since DD had a half day today. Having a time limit actually worked to my advantage. I made two cards! I'll show you tomorrow's with Sketchy Thursday.
For today's card, I chose kraft for my base. I love how red & pink looked with it so I colored the heart flowers to match. I drenched them with some Stardust Stickles and added a little sheer ribbon from A Muse to make it look like a bouquet.
I couldn't resist using my new MS heart border punch again. It's been a fixture on my desk since I got it. I also spritzed a quick hit to the center of the image with my Copic airbrush and BG10 Cool Shadow.
Here's a detail shot:
I tried to keep it pretty simple. I really liked this sketch a lot and will be adding it to my favorites. So you may see it again. *wink*
Thanks for stopping by today! I can't wait to show you my card for tomorrow!!
Have a GREAT day!
OOOOOHHHHHHH YAY!!!!! You got the stamp!!!! Don't you just love it!!!! I can't get enough of it!!! I have made a few cards with it in my spare time.
I'm so sorry for not playing along lately, I've just been so crazy busy pet sitting and dog walking, I'm just not home enough to be crafty! So sad LOL But hey at least I am working!!
