These cards are for the Willow Sketchie challenge which is a sketch:
Plus a recipe of: Sparkle / Shimmer, Floral and Yellow
I'd say I've covered all the requirements! I've used papers from my box of oddments so I couldn't tell you where they were from except that they are digital. The stamp is from the now no longer Digi Sparkle and I've coloured him with Promarkers, added some stickles to the wings and also around the edge of the image.
The flowers I found in my stash and I've added black card candy to the centre. I've used my Nesties dies to draw around for the shapes as square would not have looked right, plus more card candy and ribbon from my stash.
I've inked the edges and added a faux stitch around the main backing paper to stop everything 'falling off the edge'.
I am useless at remembering Birthdays. Actually, I remember them about a week before and then forget so my cards are always late! So these will come in handy!
I'd also like to enter the following challenges:
Craft Your Passion: Funny Sentiment
Hooked On Crafts: Things With Wings
One Stitch At A Time: Bling It Up
Sentimental Sundays: Birthday
- Papers: From my stash and don't know originator
- Image: Digi Sparkle, coloured with Promarkers and stickles
- Dies: Spellbinder Nestabilities
- Everything else: My stash
Great card, I love the sentiment and your flower.

ReplyDeleteThat's a scary sketch Ruth but you've 'nailed it' as they say! Fab cards; love the sentiment with the little bee. xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a great take on the sketch! Your cards have such clean lines. I especially love the muted tones of the paper and background which just brightens the bee, flower, and the sentiment. Thank you for joining us at Hooked on Craft Challenges!
