Sketch Saturday Week # 168

Happy Saturday! We have a brilliant forecast of sunny weather today and so we are going to try to enjoy every second of it. We are going to a Beach Party/Diploma Day at the sailing center. My eldest passed another level this year and we are so proud of him. He is also really, really happy! I am sure it will be a lovely time.

Today’s card is for this week’s Sketch Saturday Challenge and once again, I have used the new Whiff of Joy Henry’s Adventure stamps. This is truly a must have collection because they can be used for so many occasions!

I love how sweetly this little froggie is posing for Henry. My boys should take lessons from him! I colored up the image with my trusty Copics and then added some background shadows with some prisma color pencils. I thought this Tim Holtz film strip was the perfect accessory for this image and so added a nice long strip of it.

The papers are Whiff of Joy and so are the sentiment and banner which was made with a WoJ metal die. In fact, everything is WoJ!

As you can see, I  flipped the sketch upside down, moved the sentiment to the right and the embellishment upwards. It just looked nicer that way with this image.
