Have you ever had a card that was almost right? I mean, you like it but it just needs a little something. Well, that is how I felt about my last post. I really like the card but it was just missing that special something. I am teaching a Watercolor 101 class this week and really wanted to use this preview of the new set Elements of Style as an example. So, back to the drawing (or coloring) board I went. I reworked the colors and used Kraft (soon to become Crumb Cake) and Chocolate Chip. Really, who doesn’t like cake with chocolate chips, after all??!! I brightened up the colors a little bit to match the richer feel of the Chocolate Chip. As a final touch, after distressing and sponging the edges, I used my new Smooch Spritz that will be available in the new Summer Mini. This one is Log Cabin and has a bronze look to it. I thought the satin ribbon with the linen thread finished this card off right. It is, of course, another take on the Our Creative Corner Sketch 10, except this time I stayed with the sketch orientation.
Thanks for dropping by to see the new version! You comments are always appreciated.
