I {heart} Sketches with a tWist #168



Good Wednesday morning!
I hope everyone is having a 
great week.

It was beginning to look like
Spring had begun in Alaska then
I awoke to 6 more inches of snow
this morning AND still falling!!

Oh well, good thing I'm joining the Spring
Coffee Lovers Bloghop with this adorable
From the Heart BirdBrain image.

This week I chose to play with 
the challenge twist and used
the colors provided.
I began by printing the image onto
Stampin' Up! Whisper White Card stock
and coloring with Copic Markers.
A little shading with charcoal 
pencils and sponged background. 

Thanks for taking a closer look!
I'm sharing my card with the following:

This is such a charming card! It made me smile and I love how you made it both witty and elegant. The patterns you combined look so perfect together and I love the energy and life you gave to your endearing little bird! The ribbon adds the perfect bit of texture, too. Thank you so much for sharing your talents with us for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!

Mojo Monday #500 and Craftin' Desert Divas June

I'm stopping in tonight with a quick post for the current Mojo Monday Sketch challenge and Craftin' Desert Divas June Moodboard. My card features the adorable pre-colored digital image from Craftin' Desert Divas called Joyful Day . If you haven't heard, this will be the final challenge for the Mojo Monday sketch .  :( It is sad, but yet I completely understand  that Julee needs to devote more time to her sweet family which includes twin boys.   That takes a lot of energy and faith! I LOVE sketch challenges and the weekly inspiration from Julee will be missed. Thanks so much for stopping by! I'm sharing my card with the following: Mojo Monday:  Challenge #500 Word Art Wednesday:  Anything Goes #286 - 287 Crafing with Dragonflies:  #82 Anything Goes
