Sketch #80

Good morning my blogging friends! I've been having trouble with blogger for the past couple of days so cross your fingers this works.

Welcome to Thursday! You all know what that means. It's time for another sketch challenge brought to you by the wonderful Tamara over on the Sketches blog. Here is the fabulous layout she designed for us to use this week.


Sketch 80
My interpretation.

I made a card earlier in the week using these same colors and liked it so much I decided to use it for my challenge card. The flower and sentiment were made with the Cricut and George Cart. For the flowere I layered two of them and embossed them with the Cuttlebug & Swiss Dots Folder, then I added a Prima and Pearl Brad. The background was stamped with Flourishes (Rhonna Farrer) and heat embossed. I added color with a Copic marker and some tiny Primas. Thats another one of those Thicker's (American Crafts) behind the flower.

Stamps: Flourishes. Paper: Black Textured, White, Pixie Pink. Inks: Brilliance Graphite Black. Extras: Cricut, George Cart, Cuttelbug, Floral Fantasy & Swiss Dot Folder, Adhesive Pearls, Brads, Primas, Copic, Threading Water Punch, Piercing Tool, Thicker, Gel Pen, Black Fabric Paint (flower centers).

That's pretty much it! I can do white cards, but I still have to add a lot of layers cause I'm such an embellishment junkie, you know. *Hee hee*

Make sure you stop by the Sketches site and check out all the fabulous samples the design team created and we would love for you to join us. Make sure if you do that you link back to the site so we can see your wonderful designs. Remember, one person is selected each week to be featured for their design and who knows, it could be you.

Have a fabulous day and thanks for stopping by. TTFN
