Hi Again,
Time again for another one of Makeesha’s challenge. This weeks challenge is a sketch. Hope you like what I have come up with this week.
Here is the sketch:
Here is my card:
With this card I have used the water misting technique onto the stamp once I inked it up to give this gorgeous water colour look.
The circle backing the stamped image is on doesn’t show up very well in this photo, the colour I have used is Stampin’ Up’s pumpkin pie to pick up the orange in the stamped image and I have used the night of navy marker to create the faux stitching around the edges of the circle.
Card Recipe:
Stamp It: Cling On Stamp – Foliage Flurry & Solid Butterfly. Penny Black Clear Stamp Words – For You. Kaleidacolor Ink – Royal Satin. Kaisercraft: Pearls. Fiskars: Scallop Punch. Stampin’ Up: Cardstock – Rose Red, Pumpkin Pie and Night of Navy. Ink: Night of Navy. Other: Gingham Ribbon
Thanks for looking!!!!
Cindy

Wow – the colouring is absolutely gorgeous, and the butterflies look very sweet, with their cute little pearl bodies, Jo

You have done a beautiful job using the water misting technique, something I have been inspired to try, after looking at your stunning card.

This is just beautiful Cindy – I love the colours and stamps you’ve used – very pretty. And the ribbon finishes it off very nicely. Great job.

Gorgeous card. I have some similar stamps, will have to give this a try. The colours in the foliage are my favs.
