Sketch time! I loved this sketch from Beate! The open canvas was great for this Far East - Lizzie Anne idea that I have had for a while. My lanterns are embossed on Cryogen White cardstock in vibrant colors and clear embossing powder. Then, I covered the bulb portion of the lantern with scratch paper and stamped the leaves over the hang loops to give the appearance of the lanterns hanging on the reeds. The flowers are accented with faux pearls. And, thanks to Cami, I was able to re-work a little issue I had been having with my Sew-Mini and it seems to be fine, now. Hmmm, yeah, you have to thread it right in order for it to work properly. <duh>
I’m going to check out the other sketch cards this week. You can see Beate, Cambria, Charmaine, Jenn, Laurie, MaryJo and Sharon by clicking their names. I’ll be back later this morning with a bit more *news* and such. Thanks for stopping by!
