This week's sketch is by Jean Cross (naturecoastcrafter at SCS) and is inspired by this card.
I tried out a technique that I saw Teri do on the Technique Tuesday blog. I didn’t quite do the “ombre” thing, but this background was created in a similar way: I scribbled a couple of different colours of watercolour crayons on a clear block, misted it with water, then smooshed it onto the cardstock. It served as a pretty base for my glittery clouds.
I stamped the sentiment (Bright Idea by Technique Tuesday) in black and drew a box around it, kinda like the inspiration card.

ReplyDeleteTobi, I am so glad I stopped by to thank you for your wonderful card based on "my" aketch. I am so glad I did. I love what you did with the watercolor crayons to create that background. Gotta try that! Thank you.
