For this week's owl and the pussycat wtui challenge, using this week's sketch, which I CAS-ified into one layer by embossing, scoring and mask/sponging.
I used a very old stamp, perfect for the challenge, but worn. The cat part of the image was detailed, black and doesn't show up well. I tried to outline it with a black pencil...
I'd intended to use the gray-tone sketch technique, keeping it monotone. Really?? "...in a beautiful pea-green boat." Well, once the boat's green, then the other colors had to-- just had to-- come on board.

What a cool and perfect image, Brenda. It looks to me as if you did a great recovery job on the cat - and the pea-pod boat is just marvellous.
I like making sketches into one layer - it's fun .

Super creativity shining here! I am wowed by the one layer sketch! Your stamp couldn't be more perfect. Before I read your description I saw the pea green boat and thought, 'how wonderful!'. Great card!

Awesome! The stamp is so perfect for the challenge and even though it's worn, you made it work beautifully. A one-layer card for the sketch challenge is amazing! Love your touches of color. Awesome card. TFS
Super cute! This is the perfect image for the challenge! i never would have realized this was a one layer card had I not read your description! Terrific job creating "layers."
