This card was made for today's Sketch Challenge. I also used yesterday's Color Challenge colors for this. I don't have any cool background paper that matches the Coral CS, so I stamped my own. It was very cool that bleaching the coral CS gave me some yellow in the mix. After I finished my main image piece, I got a small spot of something on one edge, so I tried sponging to cover it. When that didn't work I had to add a greeting over the spot. My K & Co. paper did not quite match up with the Old Olive ink, so I sponged some on it! Worked like a charm. My coral CS scanned really pink, I'm not sure why. ( Actually, it looks fine on my IPad, so it might just be my laptop!)
This is a very versatile sketch....thanks for the inspiration!
