Thank You!

Good morning!  It's time for a new challenge from Ruby's Rainbow; for this fortnight, Helen N. has chosen our challenge and it is "Flora and Fauna".  Sounds like a fun one!

I used a From the Heart Stamps image, along with this week's sketch and twist.  The image is colored with pencils and I've added glitter to the polka dots on the vase, along with some subtle glitter to the flowers. I've done a bit of distressing and embellished simply with brads and ribbon.  Here's the sketch:

Good morning!  It's time for another fun sketch from the Tuesday Morning Sketches gang!  Our sponsor this week is Doodle Pantry;  I snagged this image/sentiment from the freebie page...thank you Doodle Pantry!

The image in printed on both CS and DP.  I colored the body of the ant, cut it out, and adhered it to the DP.  I did a bit of distressing then added ribbon and a flower to embellish.

Good morning...again!  It's Tuesday, so that means we have another sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches.  Our sponsor this week is Bugaboo Stamps; I'm always happy when they sponsor because I love the fun assortment of images.  I found this cute Stella in my stash and thought she would be perfect!

The image is colored with pencils and I used a bit of subtle glitter on the black dots.  I can just tell that Stella is the kind of girl who wants to sparkle!  I added a sentiment, some ribbon, and Swarovski flatbacks.  Might have to send this one to one of my nursing friends...the Depends comment is sure to get a chuckle!

Good Tuesday morning!  Marie has designed our sketch this week at Tuesday Morning Sketches.  It's a really versatile one; as soon as I saw it, I thought that you could do a large image in the bottom panel, or use a cute little image in the circle....  I decided I'd used a DeNami chick...love them!

The chick is colored with pencils; her eyes are dotted with a black gel pen and I added just a touch of glitter to the center of the flower.  I added a bit of paper piercing for interest and popped the image panel up on dimensionals.
