It sure has been a crazy busy couple of weeks so it's nice to finally sit and catch up with you :) This week brings us another Stampotique Designer's Challenge with Kim Howard as our hostess. Any of you that follow her blog know what a love she has for sketches. She uses them frequently.
This challenge is a Stampotique only stamps week, so we encourage you to break out your Stampotique stamps and join our creative design team for your chance to add to your stamp collection with a prize of $30 gift certificate for stamps at Stampotique!
Here's the quick little card I created using our hostess' versatile sketch. I love the distressed sentiment and I tried my hand at sketching a little border around Minkygirl; even though it's uneven, I think it works with the offset letters in the sentiment as well as the quirky Minky. The itsy bitsy pearls were created on a non-stick sheet with a Viva Decor Pearl Pen and later transferred to the corners as accents - I love making a bunch of unique-sized pearls to have on hand!
