I know I created this sketch with a Mojo Monday sketch in mind, but, it apparently didn't work out well, as I can't find any sketch that remotely resembles this card! Oops!! I know I had a little trouble incorporating this image into a card because it was so darn long. But, I thought it was worth it! I have a family full of pilots and I thought this little hedgehog called, Hedgehopper, from Penny Black, was too cute to pass up! I ordered this Cherry-O Creative Basics paper quite a while ago with Valentine's Day cards in mind. I loved that it had some pink and red (really Tulip) in it, while still having my favorite earthy colors! I think it worked out pretty good.
I could not find a clear stamp that said "Happy Valentines Day" anywhere!!! CTMH has just ONE out of all the V-day sets in this catalog and numerous sets I've bought in the past, but, I don't love the rest of the set and wasn't going to spend $20 for ONE sentiment! I looked all through the acrylics at Michael's and JoAnns before giving up and buying this rubber stamp from the dollar bin. I had a lot of trouble with it though and not one of my cards has a straight sentiment on it!! I'm spoiled having started out with acrylics!
Sorry for the lighting on these, I just couldn't get it right. These are just a couple additional cards I did with the same Penny Black image. I'm still working on my coloring with my Copics...these two could have been better, but, I think the first one came out pretty good at least!
