Pals Paper Arts Sketch Challenge

A CAS Card for the Pals Paper Arts Sketch Challenge. Loved this sketch and will probably use it again.

I had bought one of these older SU retired stamp set called Bitty Boutique a while ago and it was perfect for this sketch. I used the wonderful mother sentiment from one of the SU SAB sets (will edit the post later once I look it up).

Here is the sketch,

In retrospect, I might use a different background mat for the image so that it stands out a bit more. But I loved this sketch and can see so much more possibilities with it.

Sweet Birthday Wishes

I did this card for the WSC Getting Sketchy #16 Challenge on SCS.

I colored this Pure Innocence - Flower Girl with Copics. I used a rectangle instead of circle as shown in the sketch below, not sure what I was thinking about. Oh Well, a reason to create another card.

Boy Birthday Card

I am in love with some of the new Bugaboo Images. They are perfect for kid's birthday cards. I wanted to share one of the Boy Birthday Cards that I did using Bugaboo Sean Dog Image.

I kept the card simple as the main image was captivating enough and added the sentiment from PTI Mega Mixed Messages stamp set.

Birthday Wishes

I did this Birthday card for the Moxie Fab World - In My Beautiful Balloon Challenge. The challenge was to use the Hot Air Balloon in your project in an innovative way, but I could not think of anything out of the box and created a simple Birthday card using the hot air balloon.

I used the Hot Air Balloon image from Verve Up, Up and Away set. I paper pierced it. The Hot air balloon's in this set are perfect for Paper piercing. I then sponged some Ranger DI - Tumbled Glass around the cut out panel. The Cloud are die cuts from PTI, that I inked around the edge using a copic marker. Sentiment is from Verve Circular Sentiments.  I liked how this card turned out, I want to give this card another try and do the sponging with the nestabilities die still in place to create a white border. I also did some faux stitching on this card. I pierced the holes using Tim Holtz Designer Ruler and then joined them using Copic Marker.

Justrite Flowers

I created this card for the JustRite Friday Challenge 052: Color and Inspiration. I used the justrite flowers inspired by the photo and used the copic colors mentioned to color the image.

Here is the inspiration photo from justrite blog. I used Y21 and YR65 for the flowers. YG63 for the leaves. I did not have B63 and used the closest color I could find instead.

I used an older Card Patterns sketch for this card (#108).
