Life Happens Over Coffee
Good morning; I'm back with a new challenge from Tuesday Morning Sketches! This week Jessi has chosen her favorite sketch from last year and she is also our sponsor; it's also a judged challenge, so there is the additional twist of "Tone on Tone/Monochromatic". Guess what you'll be playing for? Jessi's amazing crocheted mats...in Valentine colors! I am guessing you will want to play along (wink)!
I've made a shabby chic style card today...I thought it would go perfectly with the crocheted mat; I've done some distressing and paper piecing, then embellished with a flower and some mini brads. Sometimes it's fun to go grubby!
Image/Sentiment: Verve "Better With You"
Ink: Palette Burnt Umber
Paper: SU! Blushing Bride, PTI Dark Chocolate, My Mind's Eye DP
Embellies: Prima Flower, Spare Parts Brads
Extras: Spellbinder's Nestabilities, Crochet Mat by Jessi Fogan, EK Success 3D Dots
I am also entering my card in the following challenges:
Artistic Inspirations: Anything Goes/Feminine
Incy Wincy Designs: Add Texture
Thank you for stopping by!
