Sketch For You To Try…

April 12, 2008, by {Jen}

Wow! This week flew by! I can actually say that it was productive as well…YAY!! Over the weekend I want to work on some stuff to submit for publication. Today I also hope to make it to the Fort Worth Duck Pond with one of my friends and her little one. I love going to the duck pond with some bread and popcorn and just hanging out and feeding the quackers. If we are lucky, there will be little ducklings there, too. I’m bringing the camera, so consider this your warning for a potential of lots of Ellie pics next week. ;)
Well, it’s Saturday, so you know what that means!…I’ve got another Sketch For You To Try! YAY!! I am still in awe over all of last week’s projects {and of course all of the other weeks,too}!!! I hope you will find this one fun to do, too. Be sure to link your creations to this post and when you upload to SCS, please use the keyword “SFYTT.”

Here’s the sketch for this week…

Detail shot of the glimmery flowers {from Michael’s in the wedding section} that I colored with an aqua painter and Groovy Guava re-inker…

    Oh this is such a fun sketch Jen! I did a little tweeking on mine since I really wanted to use this stamp:) You’ve definitely got me motivated with all your sketches..I printed off several and hopefully I will get play when the girls aren’t trying to rummage thru my supplies while “helping” me…lol

    I have been playing with this piece of ribbon all week, and your sketch “made it happen” for me, and I thank you for that! My card is buried about half-way down this post on my blog: http://thecrookedstamper.blogspot.com/2008/04/new-kind-of-challenge-candy-with-catch.html
