SNS117

A NEW challenge for me Sketch N Stash challenge #117. So the sketch is on their blog. It's a pretty sketch and fairly simple to work with. I used my brayer and Pool Party, Marina Mist and Gumball Green inks to brayer my Whisper White cs. Ranger Adirondak Pitch Black ink on my tree and to distress the edges of my image. I used my Lucky Limeade marker to dab some color to the tree's branches. The dsp is from Stampin' Up! as well as the little silver florettes. I am so pleased with the way this one turned out. Hope you like it too and will pop on over to SNS and play along with the challenge.

Eiffel

I was playing with an idea I got from a photograph I saw on FB. Paris with a bit of fog...
So I brayered Stampin' Up! Rose Romance and Basic Grey ink onto a piece of glossy white cs. Then I stamped the Eiffel Tower from Artistic Etchings #120573 Crumb Cake ink. Then I stamped the trees from Lovely as a Tree #127793. Then I masked off the lower portion of the scene and I used the more squatty tree from the same set and stamped in Lucky Limeade randomly. For the roses I used the small rose from Happiness Shared (discontinued) #120534 with the Real Red, Daffodil Delight and Lucky Limeade markers. I  colored the stems with the Lucky Limeade and using the Real Red & Daffodil Delight markers I tapped on color to the flower itself. Then I huffed and stamped. I colored in the open spaces of the roses with the markers. I then added some extra green around my trees and shrubs with the Lucky Limeade marker. Using a sponge I tapped in some Real Red on the trees. When that was done I went over the upper portion of the scene with a paint brush I loaded with Whisper White ink to create the haze.

Hope you like this little creation. I sure enjoyed putting it together.
