Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge 62

Hi All.   Back again with a sketch challenge card.   This will be the last one for me as a Design Team Member.   It has been a year and time to allow someone else to have some fun with these.   That does not mean there will not be any sketches done am sure. 
Thanks to the team for making it a great year and Michelle and Darla for all their work with it.    

This card is one yet again with a wooden stamp.  Thinking it may come off the block.   Having to try and get it stamped 4 times before getting it all there just does not make sense to me.  :)

Stock:   Close To My Heart White, Goldrush, Pear
Stamp:  Penny Black,  sentiment stamp, SU, Teeny Tiny Wishes set
Ink:  Close To My Heart Goldrush
Ribbon:   Elan
Inks:   Twin Touch 24, 33, 211, 59, 92

Here is the challenge

The original sketch:

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge 60


Don't you just love the paper.   Actually had purchased on the weekend on a shopping trip that generally never happens, and it just caught my eye.   Got the design for this weeks card this morning and -   A butterfly was on it.    Gotta love it. 

Took the Gina K base weight white and added Turquoise Sea, then this paper from Reflections to it along with a bit of Elan ribbon.  

Then took the butterfly stamp from Judi Kins sponged so long ago cannot tell you what was used, except the diamond glitter.   Had to be a year ago.  Adhered this with thin pop ups.

Next came the turquoise half pearl type things and my Bitty Bling, both from Close To My Heart. 

That made it finished.   The inside is the Gina K Turquoise Sea with a strip of the paper on it as well.   Such a simple one to make, but made me smile and hope you do too.

  
Here is the challenge  and this is the original sketch.  Actually almost did it this time.   :)



Floral in pinks

Hi everyone.  Back to a "me" type of card more than the last one.   This one is for a group am in that is mostly overseas persons.  Great group and they decided to do a challenge, wanting  to see a "pinks"  card.    Fun, just doing what want.  

This is a "Wooden" stamp.  Anyone who knows me also knows that they are absolutely the last thing to purchase as don't like using them, but loved this image, and it was on sale.    What can one do?  Purchase it !!!!

Really liking doing the square cards so much more than the tiny ones.   Play room.  
This is a stamp from Inkakinkadoo. and it was perfect. Then decided to try the promarkers that have been sitting here.   They had a special on the 2013 limited edition colours (24), and since all the gals were raving about them, this was a way to try and get some colours not here in markers.    It was great, found three to work with in the same kind of tones, and played. 

The stock is a shimmer pearlized stock 5.5" square with bazzill layered.   Had a heck of a time finding stock that matched the markers, again doing things backwards.   

The white for die cut cannot say, just pulled some pieces to stamp the new stamps on to see what they looked like, and ended up colouring it.   Sure it is not the marker paper.   Too white.  :)
So.  For the markers, used the Trick or Treat, Peony, Fresh Bloom, Pressed Leaf  for the florals and then added a touch of Capri Blue for the shadows in the bowl, and went over them with my blender to take away some of the blue.   

Die cut is the Lacey Circles from Spellbinders, with a larger one on the inside over the same pink stock, and two wee flowers coloured to match with bling in the middle of them, ready to personalize. 
The bitty bling again from Close To My Heart, and the ribbon from my fabric store.   I love to go and see the ribbon before getting it.  Generally otherwise, it sits here unloved.  
That's it .  The "pinks" spur of the moment card.  Hope you enjoy it. 

For the markers,  they are not used before, so am thinking it may take a bit.  The blending is not as smooth a transition as the twin touch or copics, but again they have the nib like my twin touch that love to colour with.   Will keep using them with the others and see how they play out.  Not many colours, but pretty ones to add to the group in house already. 

Yes, there is a watermark over the design.  A couple of the gals on the line actually had the cards hacked, the pictures used on someone elses cards, posted, and seen by those stolen from.  Posting something you have stolen.   Really ????

Sorry, but if you are not able to colour, don't steal, buy premade digis and cut them out.  If you can't do that, find another hobby because you obviously are trying to do something not in your realm of capabilities.   We are all different for a reason.    That is the most polite I can be. 

The Crafters Cafe Challenge 67 White and one other colour



This one kind of threw me, as knew my colouring in one colours is not done at all, especially hair, but thought grey would work for me, then had nothing to match with, so went on a hunt.   This dp was in a DCWV glitter stack. 

This was all greys and white with sparkle over her top as well as on the shoes and bow to match the sparkle in the glitter stock. 

Gina K white stock, DCWV paper and grey copics.   

The stamp is found here   in the art by Miran store on etsy.  
Challenge is here 
Since this was preposted due to time constraints, it would be back linked to any other challenge, so cannot do that, but will post on fb as always. 




Atlantic Hearts Sketch 58

This was supposed to be tilted a wee bit, but got it on the papers before realizing it was not.  So.  This is it.  Doing it sideways, that was meant to happen.   Besides, tilted the last one for here.  :)

Turquoise Sea, White, and Shabby Spring DP
And "Purr fectly Delightful" stamp set.   Love this guy and have used a bit.   

The ribbon is elan and just tied as made for anyone and a bow did not go with a guy cat  :)
