Thankful for you - SSC3967

Hello and welcome back to another sketch challenge over at Sunday Stamps.  I am the hostess this time around and came up with the following sketch.

The stamp is from Gummiapan and is colored with watercolor paints.  I did darken the stamens with a black gel pen so they stood out a bit more.  Sentiment is a press plate from Altenew.

Hope you join us.  Link up here.

From all of us

Hello. I'm playing in several challenge today but started with the sketch over at Freshly Made Sketch with this card.

The spring branch/leaf stamp is an old red rubber stamp from Memory Box circa 1990's.  I used Tombow markers to color it and the huff method to reactivate the ink for stamping.  The sentiment is from Stampin Up! The outline border die and fishtail pierced dies are from MFT Stamps.

This is one of my favorite stamps, because it can be used for 3 of the seasons and any occasion.

Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Halloween - TSOT#706

Hello and welcome back to another sketch challenge over at Try a Sketch on Tuesday.  This one is going to be fun to use for the Halloween card making season.

The left and right panels are created using a stencil and black embossing paste from Ranger and Tim Holtz.  The main panel is ink blended using distress inks and then stenciled too.  Bat is a die from Recollections that was cut out and stamped on.  I added the cute spiders (also a die) to go with the webs. 

Here is the link to join in on the fun.

Hello. I decided to play in the Freshly Made Sketch challenge today with this card.

I used Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide ink to blend the background with one of the rectangle stencils from Trinity Stamps. The sentiment is from MFT Stamps, and the daisy die is from Simon Says Stamp. To make it stand out a bit more, I added a thin outline frame using a die from Honey Bee Stamps.

Thanks for stopping by.

The leaf and sentiment stamps are from Unity.  I used eucalyptus and juniper ink from Simon Says Stamp on the leaf.  I found the gingham and a matching cardstock in my stash. The blanket stitch square die is from Pink Fresh Studio.
