Hi everyone, I'm back with a second post for today, can you believe it? A couple of weeks ago, I spent a day taking classes at my LSS The Cutting Garden. The classes were coloring classes - one with chalks and one with color pencils. I had a great time. Later that week, I got some happy mail from Peachy Keen. A few weeks ago, I won Top Peach. My prize was Spring Bouquet. As soon as I opened it, I knew I had to color it. Peachy Keen's challenge this week is to use faux stitching. Any of you who visit my blog regularly, will know that I use faux stitching ALOT. I decided that this week, I would use my new Peachy Keen stamp, to enter the peachy Keen challenge. Here is what I came up with:
So, I colored this with my PrismaColor Pencils, and used Gamsol to blend it. I sparkled her up with a few Stickles, just to add a little bit of bling. I am pretty happy with how this turned out - I need some experience, but it is pretty :) The sentiment is part of the Spring Bouquet set, it is a gorgeous set of stamps. Thank you Peachy Keen!
I followed this weeks sketch from Splitcoast Stampers - SCS 378. The pic is pretty small, but you can find it HERE. I stuck pretty closely to it. I decided to use a button instead of the oval piece.
Thanks for visiting again today! I have a couple more projects that I am working on this week! I am having so much fun back in my craft room - it is great to have my mojo back!!!
