Cas(e) This Sketch 170

It's the last day of the school holidays. Although I was supposed to be doing a radical tidy of the craft room, I did end up making this card using the sketch from Cas(e) This Sketch.


I created the four areas by sponging along the edge of the masking line with Mint Macaron. I like how that gives a hint of three-dimensionality. Two areas I've filled with stamping. The sentiment is popped up on dimensionals.




Ingredients
Card: Whisper White
Stamps: Altenew Painted Flowers and Label Love
Inks: Blushing Bride, Mint Macaron, Tuxedo Black
Other: dimensionals, sponges.

PPA293 and FMS 229

It's a wet autumn day but after the long drought of summer, it's a pleasant relief. Being a long weekend as well, things are looking good. So today, I've combined two challenges: the soft, dreamy, spring colours from Pals Paper Arts and an interesting sketch from Freshly Made Sketches.



Because the colours in the challenge were so spring-like, naturally I started thinking flowers and got out a set I haven't used for a long time, Altenew's Painted Flowers. It's a tricky wee beast to use, with its three steps but it makes such a pretty image, it's worth persevering with. I masked a strip of the background and used Timeless Textures to create a soft band of colour for the flowers to sit on.
