A Third Sketch for this week!

Gosh did I struggle with this sketch over on the Savvy Projects blog this week...I love the look of that square over the circle but I really had to make some adjustments. But hey, that's the beauty of a sketch, it's there to get you started!



I colored my sweet hummingbird with copics...not sure if it would really have the pink under the wings {I should get a book for accuracy} but I love how I can blend different colors of copics into each other, seamlessly. The paper is gorgeous with it and is retired from The Angel Company. The tag was part of the paper pack and the neat thing is that most of TAC's collections come with an assortment of tags.



Sadly, All Things of Nature is finally retiring - it was one of my first sets when I started with The Angel Company 9 years ago!! You can find it and all of the other on sale stamp sets here.


Other fun challenges:
Creative Cowgirls - Anything Goes
One Stitch At A Time - Anything Goes
Scrappy Frogs - Anything goes

Oh Chris! I love All Things..., but rarely use it because coloring it intimidates me. You did a beautiful job with the Copics. I see the sketch and love your creative twist. Great card!
