It’s time for a new TGIF Challenge! This week, we have a sketch challenge. I decided to use the Uniquely Artistic stamp set. It’s a brand new one that I hadn’t used yet, and I really love the delicate lines and detail. Plus, I thought the shape of the long floral stamp would work perfectly with this sketch.
I stamped the images on Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper and embossed them in white. Then, I watercolored them with Starry Sky, Pale Papaya, and Calypso Coral ink. I love this color combination!!! The orange tones look so beautiful against the contrasting blues in the background.
In the background, I used a couple sheets of Sun Prints 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper. It’s definitely one of my new favorites!!! Then, on the smaller rectangle, I stamped a couple of the images with Starry Sky ink.
For the long, narrow portion of the sketch, I used two folded strips of ribbon, including some 3/8″ Denim Ribbon and some Starry Sky 1/8″ Metallic Woven Ribbon. I also added a sentiment from the Inspired Thoughts stamp set (a great set to have in your stash) embossed in white on Night of Navy Cardstock.
The final touch was a few Solid Faceted Gems and a dry embossed background using the Fern 3D Embossing Folder.
