Sassy Cheryl's sketch Challenge

Can I share a secret with you?  I am a sketch challenge addict!  Almost every card that I create starts with a sketch in mind.  So, when I saw the fun sketch that Judy provided for this week's Sassy Cheryl's Digi Stamps Challenge, the creative juices started flowing.

I have had this image on my workdesk for a couple of weeks.  So, this week I used Sam's Rainy Day for my project:

I am including a close up of Sam and her paper pieced umbrella.  This is one of my current color combinations.  I have used various designer papers from My Mind's Eye Reunion paper pad.  Sam was colored with Copic Markers and shaded with General's charcoal pencil and blended.  The background was sponged with Memento ink.  This digital image has been retired, but due to overwhelming request, Cheryl is bringing back some of the retired images in sets.  You can find Sam in a set HERE.



I am also submitting this for Cheryl's Show Me Challenge which is running for two weeks again.  It's super easy and you might be the lucky winner of a Sassy Cheryl Digital Image!
