Thinking of you - TSOT#683

Hello. Welcome back to another sketch challenge over at Try a Sketch on Tuesday.  

I started by blending watercolors down the left side of my watercolor paper in fall colors.  Then I stamped the branch from Memory Box using ground espresso archival ink from both ends.  The sentiment is from Parklane.  It's hard to tell in the photo, but the card base is a dark brown that is cut to a mini slimline card. 

Here is the link to join in on the challenge.

Hi everyone. Sharing the following card for the new sketch challenge over at Sunday Stamps.

I kept mine very clean and simple this go around.  The flower die is from Simon Says Stamp and I colored it with Copic markers.  The sentiment is from The Ton.  I did use the same copic marker to color the satin ribbon that I used on top of the blue gingham designer paper.

I hope you join us! 

Life happens, coffee helps.

 Hello. Here is another card for the 2025 Fall/Winter coffee lovers blog hop.

The stamps are from the former Technique Tuesday stamp company.  I used a copic marker to color the coffee in the mug.  The sentiment on this is so true!

Thanks for stopping by.

Get well soon

Hello. I'm playing in this week's Freshly Made Sketches with the following card.

The wonky stitch die is from AALL & Create. I used micro-gluedots to adhere it to the cardstock.  The bandage dies are from My Favorite Things, as is the get-well sentiment. 

I have to admit, I was looking for my bicycle dies to use on this sketch, but ran across the Band-Aids and I was off and running in another creative direction.

Thanks for stopping by!
