ICS Sketch #12



It's Tuesday and you know what that means... another wonderful sketch to inspire you from Inspirational Card Sketches. I went very manly with the sketch this week, designed by the lovely Dawn,

This Father knows Best set is so good for men's card's, I have stamped onto watercolour paper and coloured with my copics (of course) then ripped the edges against my ruler and added a bit more tearing with my edge distresser, then using distress inks I have tinted around the image! The sentiment has been stamped and inked in the same way!
I have stamped the background houndstooth onto kraft card love the effect it can look like fabric with a bit more work! Mounted onto dark card and fixed a line of eyelets along the top! I have simply wrapped the natural string around the patterned paper a few times and attached with the blue button in place on the sentiment. Click on images for a close look!



Materials:
Paper: Gin-X - Anyone, Anyone? collection, PTI - Kraft, watercolour paper,
Dies: corner rounder,
Ink: Heritage - Black, mix of Distress inks, Copics,
Other: Tim's Edge distresser, BG - button, natural string, 3D foam, Big Bite and eyelets,


Thanks you for stopping by and my booty for the candy is building up so won't be too long till I actually organise it, LOL! Happy HuGs Kim x
