Beate's Sketch



I am probably the last person who has tried this wonderful sketch by Beate! I don't know why but I struggled with it a bit! This is not one of my best cards......oh well, they all can't be wonderful can they? I used these new acrylic stamps by Impression Obsession, Beach Fun. The images are adorable! I used my Prisma colored pencils and mineral spirits to blend. The paper is from Flair Designs. I used rhinestones and sequins. The circular rhinestones are from Heidi Swapp. I also used this awesome embossing powder called "sand" (how appropriate!) by Stampendous! For what else? The sand!!I did make a different size card, which for me is pretty daring! A 41/2 x 4 1/2! Tell me what you think....could it have been better, improved?

  8. Isn't it funny how sometimes we don't like the look of our work, but I think it might be because we have been looking at it too long and are not seeing it with fresh eyes?
    I love your card, the beautiful colouring, and the colours you chose and, of course, the bling! I think it's great!
