Picture Perfect Creations Specialty Challenge: A Sketch



Today at Picture Perfect Creations, we have a sketch for you to try!  This sketch is terrific because it is versatile and easy to work with!  I decided to use the colours River Rock, Cajun Craze, Riding Hood Red, Basic Black and Very Vanilla.


I watercoloured the flower from the set "Growing Green".  I stamped it with Black Stazon Ink onto Watercolour Paper and using my Markers and my Aqua Painter, I coloured the flower. 


The River Rock background paper was embossed with the Finial Press Embossing Folder.  I used the 5/8" Black Satin Ribbon and inked up my Pearls with a Sharpie to make them black for the two brads at the side of the card.  The sentiment comes from the "Word Play" set which is on sale right now at SU!.  It is part of the scrapbooking sale they are having for May!

That is all!  I sure hope you get the chance to play along this week!  To play along, please click HERE.
