Challenges
A couple of recent projects. The first was a “late arrival” for Julee’s sketch challenge, but I loved the sketch so much just had to try it with this circle stamp featuring a fish from Impression-Obsession. Stamped image with Black Stazon and then colored with pencils and Gamsol. Highlighted with Stickles on the bubbles and a little Sakura glitter pen. Layered image on scallop punched turquoise, then orange, then a Technique Tuesday scallop tile covered with turquoise craft ink (SU). I used some scrap patterned paper and can’t remember the name for the background. Three orange eyelets from SU on bottom left corner. Turned out rather bright and cheerful - sending to my brother in Florida.
This next sample was using Linnecard’s sketch challenge 056. I used some Paper Salon “Serenity” pattern paper for the background, punched circles and flowers. The monogram was stamped using Technique Tuesday “Senendipity” Capital Letters and embossed with white EP, then cut out and popped with dimensional dots.
Enjoy, lila

Lila, you’re still in the ZONE! Both cards are yummy enough to eat! Coloring the fishy image must have been a big project… it turned out splendidly!

Love both cards, but especially the first one (perhaps because I’m partial myself to Julee)! It probably doesn’t hurt that your coloring on that one is exquisite as well.
TFS!

Oh, these are both wonderful! That fish is just gorgeous and the what’s up sentiment just cracks me up. Thanks for doing my sketch! Both cards are so cheery and fun!

The fish is kinda cute. Why are you sending it to Uncle Todd?
I don’t like that punch on the second one.
