Sketch Challenge


I found a new blog site today, well it was new to me. The Divine Miss M at Reach for the Stars had put up a sketch on Tuesday and as soon as I saw it I knew it was for me. I had purchased a punch recently, it punches 3 different types of folding tabs, not sure what you would call them but I wanted to use it and this sketch was perfect. I needed a specific color ribbon and would you believe with my over ......... colors of ribbon I did not have the color, so, and please forgive as I stalk so many blogs I forgot which one it was that showed coloring the ribbon with your copics. My stamps were not small enough to get the sentiments in the litle squares so I went or it and did it freehand, as you can tell I have trouble with straight lines but that is the beauty of handname.

Great card Flossie, know what you mean about the ribbon. I have stacks and stacks of ribbon (I'm a little addicted) but never seem to have the exact shade I need!!

In response to your question on my blog my birthday is 3rd August :)

Love the bright, happy colors. Your interpretation of the sketch is perfect! Your tabs/tags are unique and adorable. I have tons of ribbon, rarely the shade I need. Does everyone except me have these copics???? LOL I need me some copics!

Unknown said...

Great card. I love your colors, your corners and your doodling. I never have the right color of ribbon either! Guess I need some Copics. :-)

Rose Ann said...

I love the pretty paper, and how you did the sentiment on the little tabs! Wonderful card....love it!!

Tanis said...

Very cool punch! This is great...I don't have copics either...I'm curious to know what makes them so fabulous! Gee, I just can't keep up to these colouring techniques!
