Welcome to another Stamping with the Stars Sketch Inspiration Hop! One of my favorite activities with Stampin' Up! and Dawn Olchefske's team is doing the sketch inspired cards. We are challenged to do inspired sketch cards once per month. Here is this month's sketch.
And here is my inspired card.
Before
stamping, I slightly adhered the back of a 1-7/8" x 4-5/8" AND
2-1/8" x 3-3/8" Shimmery White Cardstock on to a silicone craft sheet
just to stabilize the cardstock. I positioned the two pieces exactly how
I expected them to be on the finished card. I then used Sahara Sand Classic Stampin' Pad to stamp the largest of the Cottage Rose Cling Stamp Set. I first stamped off and
then stamped onto both pieces of the Shimmery White Cardstock making sure I overlapped
on to both pieces. This just slightly showed the stamped image allowing me to follow the lines when adding color.
I then used Water Painters to color the flowers using beautiful Petal Pink, So Saffron, Sahara Sand, and Soft Sea Foam Classic Stampin' Pads. By using a size D Clear Block that was inked up with the stamp pad, I was able to use the block as a pallet, adding a bit of water to give the watercoloring effect.
The inside panel as well as the sentiment on the outside were stamped with the lovely Inspired Thoughts Cling Stamp Set.
