Fetch A Sketch Challenge 16

The weeks are certainly flying by - so much so that Fetch A Sketch is up to challenge 16!! Jenny is the hostess this fortnight and here is her fab sketch:


We are sponsored again by Delicious Doodles and Teri is offering the winner of this challenge the choice of 4 digi's from her store - thank you Teri!

Jenny and I got to play with some of the images and here is my take on the sketch. I've used Oriental Geisha as my image, colouring her with Promarkers and all my papers are from Cosmo Cricket - Circa 1934 paper kit.

I've made the embellishments by cutting out some of the pattern and adding a black half pearl to the centres after inking.

Good luck with the sketch and challenge - hope you can join us! For more details and to see more inspiration for the sketch, pop over to Fetch A Sketch!

Sketches By Tamara # 91

It's been a while since I followed one of Tamara's sketches - this is sketch 91: And I've finally used one of my Craftwork Card oriental stamps! This one is Akina and I've used chestnut Whispers ink and then coloured her with watercolour paints and pencils.

Papers are Simply Elegant 6 x 6 and I've also inked the edges. Sentiment is from a 4 block stamp and the flowers are wonderful freebies that I got from an internet site (so sorry but can't remember where as I've unpacked them!) - the white ones are from one pack and the brown printed one from another. Brad is from my stash.


I really liked working with this stamp, so expect to see more in the future! The detail is really amazing too - very delicate!
