A New Sketch Challenge


My blogging friend Tammy challenged me to a challenge! She would come up with the sketch and I could choose the colors! I love reading Tammy's blog, Stamp Happy, so I was excited to participate with her! I was even more excited when I learned she has a card published in a magazine! You can read about it on her blog! Way to go, Tammy! The colors I chose were: Ballet Blue, Certainly Celery and Barely Banana. I am doing a workshop soon and I wanted to use my Nursery Necessities set, so I thought I would get in some practice! The moon and star were stamped in craft ink, then sprinkled with Heat & Stick powder and heat set just until they got shiny. Then I covered them with Dazzling Diamonds glitter and heat set them again. The H&S powder really does a good job when you want full coverage. The sentiment is embossed with clear EP, and the image has faux stitching all around. Hope you enjoy it! It was a fun challenge! Thanks Tammy!

  1. Oh LeAnne, how cute!!! I love the star hanging from the moon, and the glitter looks awesome! I do not use my H&S powder... I think maybe I ought to pull it out sometime soon since you made it look so great!

    Thanks for the fun! Looking forward to our next challenge!

  6. WOW LeAnne - what a wonderful card. Gives me an idea what to make for a baby shower coming up. I too love the little star hanging from the moon.

    I know Tammy personally and when I cannot make our monthly card making session, I feel as if something is missing. She always challenges me!

    You stepped up to the desk, and completed a gorgeous example of what we can do when "challenged!"
