Sketches

I quite like following a sketch
so the Monday Mojo challenge appeals to me!

This is this week's sketch:-


And this is my take on it:-
Lots of colours and layers, a background, distressed and watermarked,
 the Indigo Blu stamp from 'Poppy Meadows'...


Then I saw

Sketch~n~Scrap Card Sketch #2 Challenge


This is the Sketch



And the next picture is my card...

I have used a 'negative' stamp which I stamped and then coloured with
 'Sunflower ' and 'Caramel' Promarkers.
 The background was cardstock embossed using the SU Honeycomb embossing folder.
The coloured honeycomb was made with shaving cream and food colouring through a stencil.
(How to: Shaving cream and food colouring)



Happy Crafting!

    What a creative lady you are Susan, I have never heard of someone using shaving foam and food colouring on their cards before but I have to say it looks stunning. Thanks for playing along with us at Sketch N Scrap. xx
