Hello crafty friends! It’s time for a brand new Sketch Challenge! I went with a lot of detail for my take on the sketch this week. Sometimes it’s fun to add a lot of elements to your cards!

Here’s a look at this week’s sketch layout. Come play along with us for a chance to win a $50 MFT Gift Voucher! (Winner is chosen at random.)

I combined a few Birdie Brown Stamp Sets for my card today. I stamped all of my images with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink onto a sheet of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock, colored with Copic Markers, and used the coordinating dies to cut them out. I then set them aside and blended a small ocean area on another piece of smooth white card stock using a blend of Tumbled Glass, Broken China, and Chipped Sapphire Distress Inks. I then splattered this blended area with some water to give it some added texture.

Next, I trimmed a piece of brown patterned paper from the Woodgrain Whimsy Paper Pad and diecut a circle in the center of it. I created my own frame using some various circle die-namics and white card stock. To add to my scene, I adhered some ocean foliage that I had cut from white card stock using the Under the Sea Die-namics.

Lastly, I added my sentiment that I had stamped onto white card stock and die-cut using one of the Skinny Strips Die-namics.
