FS67, CTD57 & CBC11

This challenge sketch gave me several ideas, so I did two cards. The sketch is from Friday Sketchers. The first card also incorporates the Color Throwdown Challenge 57. I didn't have Positively Pink and substituted Melon Mambo. I stamped the damask images randomly over the card front and as I added layers I aligned them with the previous images and used the stamp-a-ma-jig and re-stamped the images. All rectangles and the cardfront are sponged prior to stamping takes place. After all stamping is complete I stamped the greeting and sponged it. Then I took a silver metallic pencil and highlighted the underside and right side of each of the images. Stamps: Inkadinkado Bold Damasks, SU Circle of Friendship
Ink: Basic Black
Paper: Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery, Melon Mambo
Accessories: Stamp-a-ma-jig, sponge, Derwent Metallic Pencils, 1 3/8" circle punch

The additional challenge besides the sketch is from Copic Buzz Challenge and the theme was inspired by nature.
Stamps: SU Serengeti, Inkadinkado Animal Skins
Ink: Basic Black, Black Brillance, copic markers
Paper: Soft Suede, Crushed Curry, Dusty Durango, Whisper White
Accessories: sponge, 1 3/8" circle punch
Copics used:
Grass: Y17, E31, E35
Leaves: BG93
Branch: E47
Bird: E31, E47, white gel pen
Shadow: BG10
Whew! Just one more challenge left to complete for this week.

Cool stuff Kelly! So I have to ask what are you going to do about the new demos policy with stampin up. Look like they are loosing a lot of demonstrators over this. You can't even have another companies stuff on your blog!!!! I think that is a little extreme.
