Time for Beate's Weekend Sketch Challenge again. Here's this week's sketch:
And short & sweet this morning -- my sample:
Products: Lockhart Polka Dot Butterfly stamped in Brilliance Pearlescent Chocolate pigment ink on Curious Iridescent Cryogen White cardstock, colored with Copic markers, cut and matted with Spellbinders Classic & Scalloped Rectangle Nestabilities. Clear Dew Drops (colored with same Copic B23 I used on the butterfly), Memory Box Aerial & Inspire printed papers -- all except white cardstock available at EllenHutson.com. Tonic Edge Distresser, Pop-Up Glue Dots, Stampin' Up blue narrow organdy ribbon, sewing machine & white thread.
And that closeup you all really seem to like. I chose Copic markers to match the colors in this lovely, springy paper:
Be sure to check out my stampin' friends' blogs for their take on this sketch: Beate, Cambria Turnbow, Charmaine Ikach, Jenn Balcer, Laurie Schmidlin, Lori Craig and MaryJo Albright -- they'll be awesome, I'm sure! Join us on the fun this weekend and try out this sketch.
I'll have some more Inchie ABCs for you tomorrow!
This is lovely, Sharon! Such pretty colors!

No kidding, Sharon! While mine looks totally caffeinated, your butterfly is certainly Zen and very soothing. Love the watery, Impressionistic (is that a word?) look here. It's gorgeous!
