I'm a bit slow this week doing the challenges. Here is mine for the Sketch Challenge SC157 found here: Forums at Splitcoaststampers
I love this sprig of leaves from the new SU set Embrace Life so I used it here with a flower from the retired SU set Roses In Winter.
Recipe: Using the Emboss resist technique I stamped the three flowers in Versamark on Whisper White CS, heat embossed with clear EP. Over stamped flowers with leaf sprig in True Thyme ink heat embossed with clear EP. Colored the leaves in with SU markers and went over them with a Versamark Marker and heat embossed them again with Clear EP. Sponged on colors using a circular motion for BG using Creamy Carmel, Close to Cocoa, Baroque Burgundy & Bravo Burgundy. Over Stamped Springs with sprig stamp, stamping slightly to the left to create a shadow and colored in the leaves with SU markers. Over stamped the flowers to create a shadow with Bravo Burgundy. Stamped Sentiment. TFL
