Sketch challenges are my favorite! I just love having a great “starting point” for a card to get the creativity going. The best part is that you can take the layout and make it as simple or as detailed as you’d like.
I decided to finally ink up the It Starts with Art Bundle for my card this week. This is such a fun little set that celebrates everything crafty. One of my favorite stamps in the set is this little trio of coloring tools. You can never have TOO many pens, pencils or markers, can you?
Today’s Colors:
I stamped the image in Tuxedo Black Momento Ink and colored it in with Stampin’ Blends Markers. I also added some shimmery Wink of Stella Glitter Brush detail to a couple of the markers along with some coordinating pearl accents. Did you know that you can color your rhinestones and pearls with your Stampin’ Blends Markers? Yup, it’s super easy and really gives those accents a lot of extra versatility in your crafty supply stash.
