Happy St. Patrick's Day, friends! Do you have any plans to celebrate today? Our kids already had a visit from the leprechauns and enjoyed some green pancakes for breakfast.
If you're planning to get crafty today, I hope you'll give the new sketch at Card Patterns a try! This week we're sponsored by Sparkle Creations Rubber Stamps, who sent the Design Team some of their cute stamps to use on our designs.
I also used the colors for the current CR84FN challenge.
One of the images I was sent to work with was Swimming Lucy, which I thought would work perfectly with these bright colors. It also explains the "Happy Summer" sentiment in March!
The image is colored with Prisma pencils and adhered to a base of Raspberry Fizz bitty dot patterned paper.
Cardstock: Papertrey Ink (Hibiscus Burst, White)
Patterned paper: Papertrey Ink (2008 Bitty Dot Basics)
Stamps: Sparkle Creations Rubber Stamps (Swimming Lucy), Papertrey Ink (Tag-its #4)
Ink: Memento (Tuxedo Black), Stampin' Up! (Melon Mambo)
Tools: Fiskars (scallop border punch), Papertrey Ink (polka dot impression plate, banner die), corner rounder
Accessories: ribbon, button, DMC floss
Coloring medium: Prismacolor Premier pencils
I'm off to catch up on some chores around the house so that I can enjoy the nice weather we're supposed to get tomorrow. Hope you enjoy your weekend! Thanks for visiting today!
