Good morning, hope all is well with you!  It’s time for another sketch from ICS.  Our sponsor this week is Sparkle Creations Rubber Stamps

I was lucky enough to receive this adorable stamp from Sparkle Creations Rubber Stamps – Scooter Chloe

Now for the sketch-I happened to have found this one very challenging.

And here is what I came up with!

I apologize for the out of focus picture.  I didn’t realize that it was like that until it was too late.  The papers are by Recollections from Michael’s.  She is all colored up in copics and spicas.  We would love to see what you do with sketch, so make sure you get your card linked up in time.

Design Seeds Jellypark Challenge

Good Friday morning to you!  I know this is late, but I was having some charger issues-it was missing!  But it’s found now, and here is my post!  Today starts a new challenge at Jellypark, and that challenge is to use a color palette from Design Seeds.  Now, I supposed to post a pic of the color palette I chose, but I CANNOT find it.  So, I’m sorry!  But I did use a new release image from Jellypark called Snowball Girl.  The sketch is an older one from Deconstructed Sketches.

Jp-girl-in-the-snow

She is just so cute!  She’s all colored in Copics, and there are stickles everywhere.  The snowflakes are also colored with my Copics, you couldn’t see them on the tag, so I used my C7 marker and  colored them up.   I would love to see what color palette you choose, so head over and link up your creation at Jellypark.  You have 2 weeks to get your entry in.  This is also being entered into the following:

Good Monday morning to you!  I hope your having a wonderful start to your day.  Didn’t get much sleep last night, as we had a massive amount of thunder and lightning, and a little bit of rain.  Oh well, at least it’s cooler that the 110 degree weather we had all last week-YUCK!  Ok, Jellypark is sponsoring Fetch A Sketch, this is the 2nd week of the sponsorship.  Here’s the sketch, and my take on it.
