It's time for the Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge (SSSC104), Karen has another fantastic sketch for all of us to try out this week and we hope you'll play along! The card that I created using this weeks sketch is Stampin' Up only (SUO) and has a vintage look, I used the stamp sets Elements of Style and Tiny Tags. I'm also entering this card in a few other challenges, the Colour Queen Color Challenge, Play Date Cafe Color Challenge and the Pals Paper Arts Challenge which was to create a card with a vintage look.
The main image was stamped in Crumb Cake, then I used my aqua brush and water colored in some Pretty in Pink and Regal Rose ink, then add some Dazzling Diamonds glitter on each of the roses (you can click on the photo for a close up view). I love this image of the roses, it reminds me of the large English climbing roses I use to grow at our first house.
This is a close up of the paper rose, I used extra large five petaled flower punch and layered three Pink Pirouette flowers together after crumpling them up. Then I sponged them with Crumb Cake along the edges and sponged Regal Rose in the center before adding a vintage brad.
Aren't these pictures of the color inspiration from both the Play Date Cafe and the Color Queen beautiful?
