Sunday sketch and Stamps by Barbara

Hi my name is Tracey and I am a sketch addict. LOL. I love my sketches. Can't you tell. Hehehe. Okay seriously I love the simplicity of this sketch from Sunday Sketch and Stamp and thought it was perfect with this gorgeous Kraftin' Kimmie stamp - name is Isabelle. Isn't she the cutest. I coloured her on Neenah 352gsm from Mad for Markers. It would have to be my favourite card but there are a couple of issues with it. 1. It won't print on my printer so no digital images and 2. It does bleed a little but I am working that out. No over blending - which is a habit of mine. I will show you a couple of examples of me not over blending on the same card later in the week.

I tried to do a cloudy background and got the colours right but the shapes ended up looking like a bricked background. So I tried to fix it with a little success but not too much to my liking. Anyone I am my worst critic and I am sure it is fine. Hope you enjoy your weekend. Being mothers day and all tomorrow I am looking forward to a sleep in and some new slippers (which I do actually need LOL). Bye.

Simply for Mum

Afternoon everyone. With Mothers Day being in a couple of days over at Simply Betty Challenges we have a great one for you. 'Something for Mum'. So using your Simply Betty stamps make something for your mum. I know that my mum is not one for lots of gifts so a nice card for her is all that I need to give her. Unfortunately I have been a bit late so she won't get this one but another is on the way. Come and play this week as you can win yourself two Sweet Gothic kids from the current catalogue. Enjoy and can't wait to see your entries.

A star is born

Good morning everyone. How are we all...??? Good I hope. Here in good old Melbourne we are all travelling very well. Today I have a card to show you made for the current challenge at Mad for Markers which is to use 'Greys'. If you haven't popped by the challenge blog for a while you will notice that we have changed things up a little - we have changed the challenges from monthly to fortnightly - so still gives you enough time to make something but you aren't waiting as long for the next challenge. I decided to colour the whole stamp in grey and use colours on the card. I used 'Tyler' from the Creeper Crew Set available at Mad for Markers.

Copics used:
C0, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 10
Other: Express It Blending card.

Sketchy Colors #69


Afternoon everyone. Wow the day has gone so quickly. Before I know it it will be time to go pick up my eldest at school. Need more hours in the day - I swear. LOL. At least I got a new 'do' and feeling nice and fresh and light.

Today I have a card for you for Sketchy Colors #69. I loved the sketch and thought it was perfect with this Crafts & Me stamp by Jasmine Beckett-Griffiths. Such a talent (hence why I have a tattoo). I have had this coloured up for some time but kept forgetting to put it on to a card so I went through all my non Spesch stamps and found this. Low and behold it was perfect with the sketch. Can't remember what Copic colors I used. Sorry. Enjoy the rest of your day.
