TMS#132
Good Tuesday morning! It's time for another fun sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches; today Theresa has done the the honors and our sponsor is Paper Pretties.
We went out of town this past weekend and I had the opportunity to shop at 2 stamping/scrapping stores. I'm always excited when I get this kind of opportunity because the only stores I have close are big box stores. So I was like a kid in a candy store! Even though Valentines is so close and there's not a lot of card making time left, I couldn't resist some of the lovely papers I found. This line is from Echo Park and is called "Yours Truly".
I stamped my image on CS and DP; then colored the image, cut it out and pieced it. I like the subtle text in the background. I added a bit of glitter to the pink hearts. I also tried something a bit different embellishment-wise. I love the swirly bling I see used on cards, but don't use it myself so I thought I would give it a go. I tell you, I had that bling here, there, and everywhere before I was happy with it! LOL Good thing it is not overly sticky!
Image: Stampendous
Paper: G.P. 110, SU! Ruby Red and Basic Grey, Echo Park DP
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Sakura Black Gel Pen
Embellies: Barbara Trombley's Art Glitter in "Pink Smoothie", Martha Stewart Crystal Fine Glitter, Zva Creative Bling
Extras: Prismas/Goo Gone, Spellbinder's Nestabilities, Dimensionals
You can check out the rest of the DT's creations here; be sure to leave them a little love for their efforts. Would love to see what you come up with using this fun sketch too!
Thanks for stopping by!
