CSS Sketch Hop July 9, 2013


Welcome
Here is the sketch this time around-a lot of fun to work with, I must say!



                                                               

You have arrived  after coming from Joy's , and I am glad you are here.
I flipped the sketch a bit and made this card using the "Birthday Hoot" stamp set and Gina K paper and inks.  I colored with Copics and many of the layers were popped up to give this added dimension! The owl and the balloons were cut out by hand and attached to the card panels.




"Make sure to leave a comment as you go along because we will choose a random comment and that stamper will win a grab bag of Gina K. Designs products! Look for the announcement on Tuesday, July 16." Now you are to head over to Lori's site and check out her gorgeous work!
