I made this card back in March for a Splitcoaststampers Card Sketch Challenge. Splitcoaststampers is an on-line community of card makers, stampers, and scrapbook enthusiasts. They have challenges every day of the week and one of my favorite challenges is the Sketch Challenge.
Although I look at the sketch challenge every week, I rarely play along. Mostly, because I don't have time, but I am also picky about the type of sketches I want to do. This week, I happened to like the sketch so much I decided to play along. Here is the sketch pictured below:

| Photo Credit I had this old Crafty Secrets (no longer in business) image that was perfect for this sketch because it was already in the shape of a circle. All I had to do was color it in and cut it out. Easy peasy. |
Here's a close up of my coloring. I used Copic Markers to color.
I used designer paper from My Mind's Eye "Stella Rose" for the background. I cut the scalloped border and the sentiment using dies from Spellbinders and My Favorite Things.
I enjoyed this sketch and had a lot of fun playing along with the other Splitcoaststampers ladies.
I'm entering this card in the Four Seasons Challenge.
Have A Great Day! Amy

Oh Amy! This is so beautiful!! You color so beautifully too! I color but for pure relaxation and I can tell you it does not look like most of anyone’s great work. 😂
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the online group. How neat!!
Do you scrapbook too?
Thank you Chrissy. Yes, I was a scrapbooker long before I was a card maker. I only scrap book digitally now. I wish there were a way to share my scrapbook pages here on my blog; you'd think it'd be easy since they are digital, but I can't seem to figure out how other than to take a photo of the pages, so I haven't shared my digital scrapbooks here.
