Hi everyone!! Happy New Years Eve!! Here is my card for today's Sketch Challenge, SC209!! It is FREEZING here on Long Island, so I pulled out some spring colors to make me happy!!
The elephant and flowers were watercolored with SU! inks and an Aquapainter. I added some Dazzling Diamonds to the hearts (that are popped up) and the butterfly, as well as the hearts on the sentiment. I sponged Cool Carribean on the background using a Scallop Circle Punch as a mask. I cannot remember who I saw doing this, but THANK YOU for the inspiration (and if anyone knows, please tell me so I can give them credit!!).
Thanks so much for looking!!
I wish you ALL a Happy and Healthy New Year!!! Hugs!!!
Jodi
