I hope you are all enjoying your week so far! I have a card to share with you today that was created for two challenges- Mercy's Tuesday Sketch Challenge and this week's TSG61 challenge to Go Green. The TSG Challenge is a two part challenge. Your card has to incorporate both the color green and flowers.

This is my last week as one of Mercy's Muses and I have had so much fun playing along with her and her crew this month!  Make sure you stop by Mercy's blog to get all the details on how you can play along with us each week in these fun challenges :)

About my card-
* Both the green and pattern DP are from a single sheet of double sided paper from Dream Street Papers called Birdie Bits Building A Home
* The flower image is from the mini set Dance and was stamped onto some new yummy paper from K&Co called Que Sara Sara
* I used a scallop corner rounder to give the card an interesting detail.
* The ribbon I used was a gift from my friend Michele and I believe that it is from May Arts. (Don't quote me on that though!)
* Scallop border punch from SU.

Hello and welcome to another fabulous sketch from Mercy! Make sure you stop by her blog to get all the details on how you can play along with us each week in these fun challenges :)


I'm not entirely sure that I am pleased with the way this card turned out but I hope that you will like it lol! I used the stamp set Garden of Friends since it hasn't seen ink in awhile. The images were stamped with Momento Tuxedo black then colored with Prismacolors and blended with OMS. I sponged Creamy Caramel ink on both of my white panels as well as the DP I used.

It's Tuesday which means that it is time again for another fabulous sketch brought to us by my girl Mercy! Make sure you stop by her blog for all of the details so you can play along with us this week!!

I had a lot of fun with this sketch and I love how my card came together. I used the new set By The Sea which is so much fun to watercolor!! I stamped the images onto watercolor paper using black Versafine ink and then watercolored using SU inks and a regular paint brush. I made the background layer lighter in color so that the front panels would stand out more.

Now hop on over to the other muse's blogs to see what they have created for your inspiration!

I'm a muse :)

At least Mercy thinks I'm good enough to be her muse lol! I am happy to say that I have joined Mercy and her awesome muses for the month of June. Every Tuesday I will be showing you a card made using one of Mercy's fabulous sketches!













Make sure you stop by Mercy's blog so that you can
play along with us in this week's great sketch!
For this week's sketch I used the brand new, just release stamp set Dadisms. Because there are so many different types of images included in this set, it can be used for so much more than just a Father's Day card! I flipped the sketch so that I could use the lamp from the set. The lamp was stamped onto watercolor paper and watercolored with a paint brush and reinkers before I cut it out and added it to the white panel. (Which was stamped with Thank You as a background and the 'for lighting my way') I love how great these colors look together and am very happy with the way my card turned out :)
