Sketch Saturday #423



Good morning sketch fans!  Today is the 5th Saturday of the month so that means you can pick any sketch from the Sketch Saturday Archive.  Don't you just love having so many choices?  I know I do!

I went with Sketch #216, and changed the format from square to rectangle.  (I've had this image colored and on standby; this sketch was the perfect opportunity to use it!)  Here's the sketch:


The image is colored with pencils and I've added lots of glitter...my favorite embellishment!  The red panel is embossed; the dots remind me of a blizzard.  The patterned paper is pearlized and so beautiful in real life.  I've added a smattering of sparkly snowflakes embellished with brads/mini brads, along with some tiny foil snowflakes.  (The snowflakes dies are from Lawn Fawn; I love the mini size!)  Here's a close-up:


Image: CC Designs
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Paper: PTI Stamper's Select, SU! Ruby Red, KI Memories Patterned Paper, Doodlebug "Lily White" Sugar Coated CS, Gold Foil CS
Embellies: Spare Parts Brads, Martha Stewart Sugar Coated CS, Doodlebug "Lily White" Glitter
Extras: Prismas/Goo Gone, SU! Embossing Folder, Lawn Fawn Dies (snowflakes), Foam Tape
