Yippee, it's Wednesday and time for a new sketch! Thanks Roxie and Wendy Bell. I got to use a very favorite image today, a telescope!
When I say the sketch, I just knew I would bring out this telescope and wonderful sentiments, The Tears one from River City Rubber stamped on acetate with Stazon jet black. and the Shakespeare quote a Cornish Heritage Farms, inked with ChalkBox dark brown on GP white cs. I used lots of texture here with the Cuttlebug embossing folders, Houndstooth and Spots. The papers are Basic Grey Two Scoops (Blueberry), an aqua from the Costco My Mind's Eye stack, and the darkest blue a Bo Bunny navy bead board. The tiny stars are stamped in Brilliance Starlight Silver. The silver loopy trim at the bottom adds more texture and the Tim Holtz clip in a darkened metal finished my card.
I'd love to hear what you think of my card! Thanks so much.

Hello, my friend! Your card popped right out of the gallery to my eye. What a fabulous card, with your usual thoughtful and novel approach to the sketch. It is pure Susan. Maybe I will have time tonight to try my hand at this sketch. I really love the telescope and your choice of sentiment. Lovely...
