Soft Summer sketches

When I sat down to do a few sketches at the weekend I wanted to use my Haiku papers, which were still unopened. Not colours I'd normally go to which stretched me a bit but that's not a bad thing!

So I chose three sketches to base my cards on, and the Soft Summer set from the Mini Catalogue.




First up, Amy's sketch...



and my card based on it:


This flower is proving to be an absolute favourite of mine. Coloured with Copics, scalloped edge punch used on the white layer which was then pierced around the sides.

Next up, last week's Mojo Monday sketch:



my card..


I used the outline berry-like image for this one, stamped in Really Rust ink, scallop edge punch along the bottom and More Mustard Grosgrain Ribbon. The felt flower is from the Flower Fusion Accents and Elements kit.

Finally the Stamps and Smiles sketch:



....and my card:


Again the outline image, stamped in Old Olive and watercoloured with More Mustard ink using a blender pen. More of those yummy felt flowers and Pumpkin pie brads in their centres.
