Challenge #27 - Let's Get Sketchy!!

Sorry I'm a little late this morning. Al and I stayed up late to watch a movie and by the time I finished up the post over at the KKS Challenge Blog, it was after 1am....and that's waaaay past my bedtime!! hehe!



This week the wonderful Jeanne has put together a great sketch for us to use!! I LOVE using sketches because it always gives me that inspiration to start off my design! It's like a no-brainer! Sketches are my very favourite challenges!



For my card I used the lovely Miss Charlotte!! I had a baby card that I needed to make, so this was perfect! I hope my friend's poor kids turn out better than Charlotte's!! Haha! I stamped the image on Neenah cardstock using Memento ink and coloured her in with my Copic markers. The cardstocks are by Bazzill and the patterned papers are from the Pitter Patter line. I used some Doodlebug star buttons that I've had for ages and tied some scrapper's floss through them. I stamped the sentiment from our Everyday Sentiments set and punched it out. I added some Martha Stewart ribbon and lastly I sponged around the image using some chalk ink, then pop dotted everything!!



If you'd like to play along with our sketch, be sure to link us up over at the challenge blog so we can check it out and if you use a Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp, you could be the random winner of the Queen Guinevere stamp as featured on Jeanne's amazing card!

OH and don't forget that to celebrate National Scrapbooking Day, KKS is having a fantastic sale!! Some of your favourite images and sentiment sets are 25-50% off but only until Sunday night, so be sure to head over there and scoop some up!!

Now hop on over to the Challenge Blog and check out the Krafty Girls' amazing designs using the sketch!!!

Happy kraftin'!
