Freshly Made Sketches


I finally got around to inking up this new Reverse Confetti Christmas Candles stamp set with matching dies when I saw the fun sketch for the current Freshly Made Sketches challenge! I just love the Stitched Rays Cover Panel for card backgrounds but had to tweak the sentiment placement a bit. I colored with Zig watercolor markers on PTI cardstock...not exactly a good choice since I couldn't blend as well as I could have on watercolor CS.



Since I just had my surgery on Thursday for breast cancer, my stamina isn't the greatest and I was too lazy to get out my Copic tote! :-/  Thus the choice to use my Zig markers.  I forgot to mention earlier that I gold embossed the images with Altenew's gold embossing powder and added Crystal Ice Stickles to the flame.

Thanks so much for stopping by...
