Sketch Challenge

Just a reminder... Don't forget to cruise on down the page to my Birthday Blog Candy giveaway.. You have until Monday at 11:59 PM to get your comments posted...

You must go on over to check out Shadowcatcher at Poetic Artistry.. She's playing blogger bingo. To speed up the game she's offered a sketch challenge using the following sketch (this image is from her blog and is not my creation). You should give it a try..

Here's my interpretation of her sketch.. I used so saffron, buckaroo blue, whisper white and daisyd cardstock.. The stamps are the agapanthus bloom and agapanthus cluster from Eclectic Paperie along with warm words from SUP. The agapanthus bloom was stamped in the buckaroo blue. But before I stamped it onto the So Saffron, I stamped off on a piece of scrap paper to make the blue much lighter. The agapanthus cluster and 'happiness' were colored with SUP markers in night of navy, bordering blue and mellow moss. I then added a prima flower with a making memories pearl dot and a little Prepschool stitched ribbon. Lastly I finished it off by distressing the edges with a little so saffron ink. Do you like?
