Cabbage Patch Kid

I'm back with this week's challenge from Tuesday Morning Sketches....  We have a simple sketch and a fun sponsor...C.C. Designs Rubber Stamps!  I was excited to use one of my Meoples images...love them!

Do you remember the Cabbage Patch Kids craze?  That was the first thing I thought of when I saw this image!  She is colored with pencils and her eyes are dotted with a black gel pen.  I've done a bit of distressing and embellished with some buttons/floss.

Good morning!  I've got a card and a new sketch to share with you from Tuesday Morning Sketches.

I used one of the fun C.C. Designs Meoples and went with a CAS look.  The image is stamped three times, on DP, Kraft, and white CS.  The cupcake wrapper is embossed and adhered to the DP, and the main image is adhered on top of the "confetti" cupcake.  I've added some punched shapes and mini brads for embellishing.

Hey Sugar

Good morning!  We have a fun, new sketch for you at Tuesday Morning Sketches...I hope you will give it a try!

I went with black/white and a pop of color...thought it would be fun to do something different.  I like how the  mostly uncolored image pairs with the DP.  I've added some glitter to the black piece of candy, along with some black crystals for some extra sparkle.

I Want Candy

Good morning!  I wanted to play along with the All That Scraps challenge which was to use the colors pink/red/brown, so I looked to find some challenges I could combine.  I found the Deconstructed Sketch and thought it was perfect for my image.  I'm using one of the Meoples from the "I Want Candy" set...I don't know, there is something about the Meoples that speaks to me...I love them!

The image is colored with pencils and the candy wrapper is paper pieced and sponged.  I've added a crystal to the bow in her hair.  The papers are distressed and I have added a felt flower and ribbon for embellishing.
