Sweet Sunday Sketch #161!

Friday, 22 nd June, 12 at '6:29 pm' 7 comments

Hello everyone!

Currently Karen who is the creator of Sweet Sunday Sketches is have a DT call on her blog. I thought I would have a go, you never know unless you try right?

So here is this weeks sketch

and here is my submission

I decided to have a play with the My Friend stamp set accompanied by Always Elegant. I did some second stage stamping with the main image of flowers and leaves. I also did quite a bit of sponging to make some of the panels ‘pop’. The little vintage brad was dipped in white Staz-On to change the colour a little.

I hope you all like my card,

Thanks for dropping by!

      Hi Tammy,
      Second stage stamping is the image that is left behind after stamping your stamp a second time without re inking the stamp. It’s just a more subtle tone of the ink.
      Thanks for your lovely comment.

    ‘My Friend’ would have to be your best friend, lol, You made so many beautiful cars with this set. Love how you can add so much detail with out the bulk of lots of embellishments. Good luck with the DT call.

Hi, I am a Independent Stampin' Up! ® Demonstrator in Gatton, Queensland. I'm married with four beautiful children, Sean, Jemma, Akayla and Darcy. I absolutely love scrapping and cardmaking and try to do both as often as possible. With four kids that's probably why I'm 6 years behind in my photos....lol.
