A Lilac Thank You

As we all know, there are so many challenges out there! For weeks I have been wanting to give the sketch challenges over at Priscilla Styles a try. My real job has finally calmed down enough that I had a chance to take one on! Priscilla has fabulous sketches and blog candy you will not believe. You will need to take a look!

This is my take on MMSC16. I struggled a little with the sketch, but I am very happy with the outcome. The lilac stamp is by Lockhart. I colored it with my copics and cut it out with my nestibilities. The papers are Basic Grey. I did a zig zag stitch around the edges of the card and the two back panels. Then I added pearls, flowers, lace, ribbon and a sentiment from Papertrey Ink Autumn Blessing.

My tip: The pearls were a little too white for the paper. I used a Copic Marker, E53, to color the pearls to more of an ivory color.

Thanks for stopping by,
Melody

A Voilet Cupcake

This is my new little Lockhart stamp. The sketch is Taylor's Friday sketch. Taylor is celebrating a year of cupcake challenges. I know I have looked forward to her sketches each weekend! The brads are Su and I and added rhinestone brads to the middle. The paper is Basic Grey. I sponges the edges of the oval and border.

Thanks for looking!
