Sketch challenge card


WOOHOO I found time to stamp yesterday for the sketch challenge on

SCS. For more info about that, click here: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=41

I had grabbed Chocolate Chip, Close to Cocoa, Mellow Moss and Perfect Plum the night before, but never got around to stamping. I grabbed the card stock I had on my stamp table and went from there. I toyed with the idea of adding a neutral to stamp on, but decided that they were all too bright. I did something I don't often do: stamp on a "color." When doing this I ONLY use craft pads. Craft ink (pigment) sits on top of colored card stock instead of "mixing" with the paper to create a new color that cannot be defined. LOL

All layers are sponged in their matching color and then sponged with white craft ink. The backgrounds were stamped using a combination of versamark and craft ink. The sentiment is stamped in chocolate chip craft ink.

Thanks for checking out my blog today! I hope you have a wonderful day! :)
