Sketch Challenge


This was for Sketch Challenge 116 on SCS. I really liked this sketch. It was simple and clean. I decided to use cardstock other than Whisper White. I always seem to use Whisper White for the main image, so I used Kraft instead with some Craft White ink and some VersaMagic Aloe Vera and Wheat. You can't see it very well in the picture, but the center of the circle has the "Smile" stamp from Be Happy stamped in Wheat VersaMagic on Certainly Celery cardstock. It's subtle in real life, but you CAN see it unlike in this picture. I also used the VersaMagic Wheat to stamp the smaller flower (from the set of three in the Big Blooms set) on the background. I LOVE the VersaMagic inks! They show up very well on darker cardstock, and they come in 36 beautiful colors! Well, thank you for visiting and have a great night! SUPPLIES USED: Stamps- SU Big Blooms, Be Happy; Ink- SU Craft White,VersaMagic Dew Drops in Aloe Vera and Wheat; Paper- SU Kraft, Certainly Celery; Accessories- circle punches, ribbon on wooden spool from Michael's, white gel pen, paper piercer, horizontal slot punch.

I love the flair with which you carried out the challenge! Your stamped images really carry the design without needing lots of embellishments.
