Peachy

Last challenge for March with Outlawz Sketch, that mean we get to use an extra image from All Dressed Up our sponsors for March.

I'm using one of the girls from Wear with Style.


I've coloured the image with Copics, using peaches and greys, not a combination I normally use but I love the result!

I've scattered some embossing enamel around the image and distressed the edges with black soot ink from Tim Holtz.


Here's out sketch for the next two weeks.


My design papers are from Dovecraft and First Edition.


The sentiment from Lili of the Valley, has been cut out with a die as has the paper behind it.  My final addition are some peach and white papers flowers.

Thanks for popping by for a look today, we hope to see you at the challenge

Cheers

I've been toying with this one for a while.  I had the idea, oooo maybe about 9 months ago.  I finally faffed with it enough to decide on two gnomes clinking their ale glasses.  Mainly because that what a lot of us are missing at the moment, seeing friends.



I sketched in a find of bar environment for the gnomes.  /usually I do them in more "natural" wild settings :)

The image was coloured with Copics.


Creating a single layer card to showcase the image, I've just added a CHEERS sentiment.

Lets hope we can do this again soon
