Happy Sunday Peeps!!
It is Sweet Sunday Sketch Day!
Here is the sweet sketch Karen has for us this week
Designed by our own Barb Anders:
I was happy to get a small order on Friday from Stampin Up with this sweet single stamp called
Love is Kindness. I knew it was perfect for this sketch.
I started by stamping the image, minus the sentiment several times onto some Confetti Cream card stock. (I knew I wanted to layer up this image). I colored the flower heads with Blushing Bride and Calypso Coral using my water brush.
The leaves and stems are colored with Old Olive and I used Crumb cake on the paper around the stems and also for shading around the image.
The base of the card is Confetti Cream card stock followed by Basic Black and then a piece of DSP from the Typeset Specialty paper pack. I matted the image with black and coral and used another piece of coral for the slanted piece behind the main image.
The sentiment is from the SAB Lotus Blossom set. I used my 1 inch and 1-1/4 inch punches.
The image is added to the card base with dimensionals. I then cut out some of the tulip heads and added them over the main image with more dimensionals. I also cut and extra piece of the paper wrap and added that over the base with dimensionals as well. I then went back into the image and added a bit of white with my chalk pen. I added several small pearls around the image and in the top corner of the image panel.
Now let's see what the rest of the girls did with this fun little sketch:
Thanks for stopping by today
