WSC28-Indian Corn Thanks

Lockhartindiancorn2sh

Another Friday and another sketch challenge from Beate.  This week, I used this Lockhart Stamp Co Indian Corn image and paired it with Stampin' Up's retired sentiment set, Fancy Flexible Phrases, for a Thanksgiving card.

I began by stamping the corn in Brilliance Coffee Bean on Curious Iridescent Poison Ivory cardstock and then embossed/die cut it with Spellbinders Nestabilities Classic Oval.  The image was colored with Copic Markers and then highlighted with Copic Atyou Spica glitter pens (gold & melon).  Here's a close up of all that glitter you all know I love!

Then I matted the image with a Spellbinders Nestabilities embossed cut of chocolate Scalloped Oval; all was mounted with dimensionals to the card.

The card base is a Memory Box Paprika note card and the patterned papers are from Memory Box's Studio 6x6 Studio pad.  This layer was distressed with Tonic's Edge Distresser and has a beautiful May Arts shimmery copper-edged chocolate ribbon tied around it (from Anna's Sassy & Sweet Crafts online store).  The finishing touch are three tortoise-like Dew Drops -- aren't those delightful?!

Be sure to try this sketch this weekend and check the samples from Beate, Charmaine Ikach, Jenn Balcer, Laurie Schmidlin, Lori Craig and MaryJo Albright -- they always knock my socks off!

Wow! Sharon that is fantastic news!!! Congratulations!!! I want you to know what an enabler you are...teeheehee! I HAD to have all of the Spica glitter pens because of you! LOL! This is just gorgeous..and that sparkle...be still my heart!

Sharon, this is just soooo pretty! You always know just how much sparkle is perfect! Congratulations on the Spellbinder's DT - I'm so happy for you!

Okay...look! My address is... just kidding. But, you do blow me away with your copic use and style.
And now, I have to get my hands on a glitter pen (such an awesome touch). Thanks for sharing. Great job with Beate's sketch.

Hi Sharon!
I'm glad you showed us a close-up so we could see the sparkle...it's gorgeous!
I'm also glad you used those dew drops...I saw them over at Ellen's store, but didn't know what they would look like on a card. Guess I will have to go shopping again :)

Wow! Awesome job!

This is gorgeous!! That paper is so pretty, and your coloring of the corn looks stunning!! Love this!

Just lovely, Sharon! The sparkles are great, and it's colored oh-so-perfectly!

MMM HMMM Very very pretty~!

LOVE this, Sharon! What a great card! And congrats on the Spellbinder's DT! I'm so happy for you!
