Simple sketch

A little while ago while doing my Blog rounds, I came upon this card by Rose Anne which I loved for its simplicity and color. I decided right then and there that I needed to do one myself. It's to easy to get seduced by all the DP and embellishments out there, forgetting that less can often be more. For this card, I came upon a stamp that showed an adorable bird condo on a branch. I don't remember which company made it but I think it is a new release. I decided to sketch my own bird condo from what I remembered. I added a little bee hive and bee.

recipe:

Stamp: Papertrey sentiment, image is sketched

Paper: Fabriano Mediovalis pre-scored card

Ink: Faber and Castel Pitt marker in Sepia, various reinkers for coloring, Basic Brown.

Other: Stickles, May Art ribbon

Sketched the image first with pencil, and then went over the lines with Faber Castel Pitt Marker. Colored it in, added stickles and tied ribbon.

Its a short post tonight, I have to prepare for a Library class Thursday. I have been working on another card, so if I'm lucky and work efficiently then I may post tomorrow. Thanks so much for popping by.

Hugs,

Sophie
