Inkspiration Sketch Challenge #8

Hey everyone, I cannot believe it’s time for another one of Makeesha’s Inkspiration challenge. Is the time flying by or what?? It is nearly half way through the year and I feel I have not done much of anything. Don’t get me wrong….I’m doing ‘stuff’ just not the right ‘stuff’. IYKWIM….!

Anyway onto the Sketch

Pretty simple huh? You could make a clean cut, simple but yet fresh card with this design. But nooooooo, I had to sit there for ages over thinking the process and the eventual design. But I do like what I ended up with. It’s not my usual style, but hey, what’s a challenge for??

One day one of my photo’s will be straight and not so crooked….naaahh! You wouldn’t know that it was my work if I started fixing things up!….LOL! I love the Friends 24/7 set. I just haven’t done a lot with it. I have clear embossed on three layers with a BG and an element. I also water coloured the bird slightly.

• Stamp Set– Friends 24/7 and En Francais BG
• Cardstock– Kraft, Riding Hood Red, Baja Breeze and Very Vanilla
• Inks– Versa Mark, Baja Breeze, Chocolate Chip, Close to Cocoa and Always Artichoke
• Accessories– Chocolate Chip Ribbon, Cutter Kit, Clear embossing powder, Heat tool and dimensionals

Oh one more thing- I used the lid from the SU button container to make the circle behind the bird. Just a clever little hint I picked up from somewhere. Don’t ask me where though….LOL! So what do you think…should I do more with the Friends 24/7 set or back away, just back away from the set??
