Kindness

Hello! Today I have some news to share with you before I get into this week's Tuesday Morning Sketch/Challenge. This will be my last post as Design Team member. I have decided after 18th months it's time to step down from the Tuesday Morning Sketches . I've had a great time and want to thank Melissa and all the girls for having me it was blast! I'll still be around playing in some challenges here and there I'm sure.

Ok onto the challenge. This week we are changing things up! Instead of a sketch we are having a Blank Canvas Challenge. I have posted a picture of the challenge below. You can find out all the little details over on the Tuesday Morning Sketches page.

To create my background.....I used 3 different TH Distress inks, an acrylic stamping block, water misting bottle on watercolor paper. Than I stamped my Inkadinkado  boat image and embossed it in white. Love how the white spots (around my sentiment) on my water coloring background kinda look like clouds. Added a gold base under my watercolor panel and some gold metal accents to finish it off. Really pleased with the end result! Thanks so much for stopping by and hope to see all again soon. Be sure to check out the rest od the teams creations.

Clean and Simple

Hello! It's new sketch time at Tuesday Morning Sketches. It's a CAS one this week. I've had these old K & CO 3D stickers laying around for awhile and thought this was the perfect sketch to use one. Added the sentiment and a few pearl type embellishments and called it done. Quick and Easy! Thanks so much for stopping by and be sure to check out what the rest of the team has come up with.

Summertime Blues

Hello! We are to be getting some warm weather the next few days and boy am I ready for it! Maybe not quite beach temps yet but getting close. I've had this Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps image colored for ages and waiting to be used. I added some glossy accents to his nose, stickles to the drink in his hand and the waves around him. I also used some washi tape something I need to use way more often cause I have plenty of it! Anyway that's its for today so glad you stopped by to visit. Challenges are listed below.

Watercolor Posey

Hello! It's new sketch time at Tuesday Morning Sketches. This week it's one of my sketches and I can't wait to see what you'll do with it! I used a Beccy's Place freebie on my card and it's colored  with my Kuretake watercolor markers. I added some stickles to the flower centers and used a distressing tool on my outer circle. The pleated ribbon is from Stampin Up. Thanks so much for stopping by and be sure to check out what the rest of the DT has come up with this week. List of challenges is below.

One in a Melon

Hello and Happy Spring?!!? Right? Even though it feels more like winter lately and they say we have more snow on the way on Saturday with as much as 6inches possible in places?! Anyway I'm in the mood for WARM weather and so I went for a summer card today! And nothing screams summer like a cold slice of watermelon!! I have had this adorable Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps digi printed out for ages....ok years actually and finally got around to coloring him with my Copic markers. Went hunting for a sketch to use and over at Sketch Saturday it was players choice to go thru their past sketches! How fun is that? Anyway I hope my card brought a smile to your face and warm thoughts to your day! :-) Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great rest of your day! Challenges are listed below.

Puppy Dog Eyes

Hello! It's Tuesday so that means it's new sketch time at Tuesday Morning Sketches.  I recently picked up this older used SU set called For Father, perfect for those masculine cards! This particular image was done with my Prismacolor pencils and Gamsol. I used some jute ribbon and brads for my first band/strip. The second one is some card stock scraps. I was happy with the end results! Thanks for stopping by and be sure to check out what the rest of the DT has come up with this week.
