Thanks for stopping by! Here is my card for this week's Sketch Saturday! Once again, I have chosen a spring color palette. Do you think it could be because we had 25cm of snow this week? The temperature right now is -12 C but is expected to go down to -17 C for tomorrow. We had hoped to take the boys skiing this week-end but when it is this cold, it really isn't that much fun. So now you can see why I wanted a little reprieve from winter-themed cards!
This is one of my favorite new Sugar Nellie stamps. I love the tender expression that Elisabeth Bell seems to be able to capture in her drawings. This one is no exception and I love her little dangling feet!
Here are the Copic Markers that I used to color her. The background is made with the Stampin' Up Top Note die and I have used my Copic Airbrush system with Y32 to create a little sunshine behind my image.
- Stamps: Sugar Nellie Rope Swing from Funky Kits, SNSS "A True Friend"
- Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, SU! Blue Bayou
- Paper: PaperTrey Aaua Mist, SU! Wild Wasabi, DCVW Baby Boy Nursery Stack
- Coloring: Copic Markers
- Embellies: PaperTrey Aqua Mist Ribbon, Prima Flowers
- Tools: Cuttlebug, SU! Top Note Die, Word window punch, Fiskars Border Punch
