Beate's Weekend Sketch Challenge #63

Hello Again!


Wow, two posts in one day! I just finished a card for Beate's Weekend Sketch Challenge and I thought I would share it with you. I haven't done one of her sketches in a while. I wanted to stamp today, but needed some direction to get started and this sketch worked perfectly! If you want to play along with this sketch challenge you have until tomorrow morning to enter.

This card started out as a Halloween card, but then I decided to just make a Autumn card with the thank you sentiment. I already have too many Halloween cards and not enough people to send them to.

I used the stamp set Autumn Harvest to complete this card. The background was stamped with leaves and acorns. The main images were stamped in Chocolate Chip ink and then watercolored with watercolor crayons and an aquapainter.

The cardstock colors are Close to Cocoa, Pumpkin Pie, Chocolate Chip, Summer Sun, and Old Olive. My embellishments are a scalloped circle, paper piercing, gel pen dots, striped ribbon, and a photo corner. The sentiment, from All Holidays, was stamped directly on the ribbon with Chocolate Chip ink.

Thanks for stopping by today. Be sure to enter my blogoversary candy draw, you have until tomorrow night at 7pm EST! Have a great Tuesday, happy stamping!! :)
