The sketch today is an easy one, but I still managed to not quite get it right, lol! Maybe the moral to this story is print the sketch out. I turned the sketch sideways and only after finishing did I realize the white panel should probably go all the way across. Oh well.
After stamping and coloring the image w/ Copics, I used my out of the box Nestie technique and a Labels 18 die. While the die was still in place, I sponged a little lt green ink around the edges. The green background was also cut w/ a labels 18, attached to a larger white rectangle then embossed. I used a white gel pen to add a little faux stitching. This card is 5.50 x 4.25.
Thanks so much for looking! It's also on my blog: The Write Stuff
