#19 ENJOY Moon Sketch

I never think about the moon in greeting cards so this was a welcomed challenge. I'm not good at sponging to create scenes so I used a memory box "Cottage Globe" stamp that I could create a background for the moon. I stamped the image with Memento 'Nautical Blue' ink and then I placed a dot on the stamp over the area where I wanted the moon behind the cottage. I then added a little shading with a C1 cool gray Copic marker. The craters are a byproduct of the paper dot displacing the blue ink. The circle behind the square is leftover from stamping the cottage in practice.

Sage Happy Birthday

Birthday cards are always needed. 

I had this sage frame around since last October for a possible Christmas card. 

The Sketch Challenge #475 at Splitcoaststampers was the perfect opportunity to finally use the frame for a birthday card. 

The roses are die cut with Sizzix Bigz 3-D Flower die. 

The leaves are die cut with the Elizabeth curvy die.

(See what I used to make the frame below.)

Card Ingredients: Elizabeth Curvy Leaves die, Sizzix 3-D Flowers die,
