Just keep swimming - SSC389

Hello and welcome back to another sketch challenge over at Sunday Stamps.  I took liberty with the sketch and went with shapes that closely resembled an oval for grins and giggles. 

The stamps and dies are from an old set; just keep swimming from Papertrey, Ink.

I ink blended the strip behind the whales and added bubbles before popping the whales down. I colored them both with Copic's. 

Thanks for stopping by.

Hi there! I'm playing in the sketch challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches with this card.

The circle and strip behind it were taken from a master board I created with mixed media paper and several different mediums.  Crackle paste was used as well as gesso, mattints, paints, etc. 

The thanks die has been in my stash forever, so I have no idea who the maker is.  The leaf die is an old one from Memory Box, and lastly the border dot stitched die is from Jillian Vance Designs.

Thanks for stopping by.

I love you more than.... TSOT698

Hello. I'm playing in the color challenge over at Just Add Ink today with this card.

The bird stamp is a very old rubber stamp from the former Angel Company.  It's a set that I will never get rid of.  It is colored with Copic markers.  The sentiment is from Technique Tuesday.  I had the embossed gray panel in my stash, and it came in handy with the color challenge below.  The tag die is from Scrapbook.com.

I'm also adding this into the challenges linked below.

Hello. Playing in the Freshly Made Sketch today with this card.

I created a 4x5 master board of torn book pages, added some gesso, PaperArtsy Infusions, and Kamenskaya liquid gilding. then cut it up for this sketch.  Up close you can see all the cool dimension and colors in the rectangles. 

I used Tim Holtz metallic classics as a layer behind and also to cut out the Thanks die from Spellbinders.  

Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Birthday - SSC388

Hello and welcome back to another sketch challenge over at Sunday Stamps.

First of all, the textured embossing folder is from Honey Bee stamps. The flowers are a stencil from Taylored Expressions, I used Simon Says Stamp saturated inks throughout.  I cut one of the stencil panels apart to fit the back layer in the back to make everything fit.  The sentiment is from Waffle Flower stamps. 

I hope you join us.  Here is the link to play in the challenge.
