Get Sketchy #70

Time for another card! I used this weeks sketch over at the Get Sketchy card challenge blog for this card. And I also used the Add on sketch over at Sketch Support. Two sketches on one project, never managed that before!

The stamped image is one of Sugar Nellie's Simply Sassy stamps - delightfully called Luv a Latte. I coloured her in with ProMarkers, and punched her out with a 2.5" circle punch. I added some chalk ink round the edge for a background. The mug is the add on sketch at Sketch Support. I followed the measurements given on the sketch, and then added a chipboard heart instead of a snowflake. I added a heart tag to make it look like it had a tea bag in it! I added some swirls out the top using Stickles for the steam.

This is another one of my cards made from scraps, all the papers are from the scrap box again. I don't know who makes the duck egg blue polka dot paper, but the other paper is Echo Park. I used my sewing machine to add some stitching around the edge. The sentiment stamp is from a Personal Impressions set.

I think this card is going to a friend of mine, who has just found out her 8 year old daughter needs open heart surgery, to correct a hole in her heart. This little girl was Tom's first girlfriend at nursery, and her misses her lots, especially as she now lives the other end of the country.

GS #69

Second post of the day, and it's a card this time. This uses the Get Sketchy #69 sketch. And it's another card made just from scraps.


The little house stamps are from One Four Zero, which I have had for eons. I coloured them in with ProMarkers. The sentiment stamps is from Elzybells, which unfortunately is no longer trading :( The papers are BasicGrey and My Mind's Eye, and the holey cardstock is Creative Imaginations. I did a bit of machine stitching to finish it off.

I can't believe I haven't found card sketches sooner, considering what a sketch addict I am!!
