ALWAYS THINKING OF YOU...

Hi there and welcome! This card is for a new sketch challenge at SUNDAY STAMPS and it's by our Annette. It's a fun little sketch and you can use any shape or element in place of the stars. I used a new stamp set from Stampin Up! It was a Christmas present from a friend and I've been playing around with it. It's also a new "cling" stamp from SU! So all their new clear sets will be known as cling stamp sets. I LOVE them and yes they cling! Finally, they figured out how to get the clear sets to stick to a block. I had started to just not apply the the clear image to my stamps and that was working but they fixed the issue and I'm so glad they did!

This set is called ALL THAT YOU ARE. Now, the challenge for me is I love to color but I am not that great at it :( I think I'm better with colored pencils than markers so my goals this year is to practice my coloring technique...or really develop a technique :/
So with that said I have been playing with this set and using it in ways I didn't have to color but still quickly make a card.

Below is the sketch from Annette...



This is my card for SUNDAY STAMPS...





I really love the red and white together it just pops. I also added some dimension to some of the flowers. I don't currently own the dies that coordinate with this set, so I fussy cut the flowers and leaves. I still have more ideas of how to use this without coloring but, my next card I'm going to give it a try and COLOR! Ugh!... Below is another card I did in heat embossing and again no coloring.



Thanks for stopping by and checking things out. Please stop by the other Design Team blogs and and see what they created with the sketch. I look forward to seeing what you create.

See you later...
