Thankful Thursday Challenge

In Style Stamps has a sketch challenge every Thursday and DT member Melissa has a great one to try this week. My Thankful Thursday challenge card uses Jasmine.   There is nothing that quite beats the thankfulness a family has then when a new little bundle of joy arrives!

Jasmine is just so trendy and put together...not me at all! (LOL) I pull my hair up in a pony tail and call it done :o)   I stamped Jasmine with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored her with a variety of coloring mediums: Bic It markers, SU markers, and Koh-i-Noor pencils with Goo-Gone (yes, that is quite a variety!) I did try something that I think is a light bulb moment for me...I colored the dress with my pencils and didn't think the red dots were quite "red" enough, so I went over them with my Ruby Red marker and it blended beautifully with no lines that I can tell.  I don't know if it was the Goo-Gone residue or what... 

Be sure to check out the rest of the In Style Stamps' Design Team for more creations using this sketch. There is also a prize being offered so create your own Thankful Thursday card using this sketch and post a link on the In Style Stamps blog to enter.  

I hope you have a great day!

So Kind

Every Sunday on SCS there is a Featured Stamper Challenge and this week Becca was chosen. She has an outstanding gallery that is well worth browsing...I am amazed by her attention to detail! The card I chose to CASE was Get Well Soon. I changed the colors and a little bit of the layout as my circle image is not as large and I centered mine. I like the simplicity of this card, it is more attention to layers.

Well, I am off to vote this morning and have a busy day from there. Have a great day and be sure and vote! :o)
