Sketch Saturday #419

Good morning!  Saturday means we have a new sketch for you at Sketch Saturday, along with a new sponsor...Sami Stamps!  Here's our sketch:

I was trying to figure out how to make the sketch work and I remembered some dies I had from Memory Box...it all came together from there!  The papers have been in my stash for years, but I thought they were perfect for the image; I have done some light distressing to the edges.  The image is colored with pencils and accented with glitter.  This was a fun way to briefly escape the summer heat and I like the non-traditional colors!

I had to make a Halloween card today...my last one for the year...so I pulled a fun Sami Stamps image from my stash.  It's colored with pencils and I've done a bit of layering before embellishing simply with 4 Bella Dots.  I like how this one turned out...the kitty is so cute!

Mushroom Talk

Good morning!  It's time for a new sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches; this week our sponsor is Sami Stamps and I picked the lovely Mushroom Talk to work with.  Thank you, Sami Stamps!  Here's the sketch:

The image is colored with pencils and embellished with glitter; super sparkly for the wings and subtle for the dots on the mushrooms.  For embellishing I've put my dies to work and made some tiny felt flowers and adorned them with pearls before scattering them on a leafy vine die cut.
