Incy Wincy DT- Sketch


It's that time again, at Incy Wincy and we are sponsored by our very own Nikki with her digi stamp company


The prize is 3 digis from Limited Runs


Our challenge, is to use the sketch above that our Samantha came up with.  You can flip, rotate etc but we need to be able to see the basic sketch.


Nikki's shop is known to some people as the calorie free sweet shop, as it is filled with over 100 cupcakes among other wonderful digis, so i of course had to use a cupcake digi.

I coloured with promarkers and flexmarkers.  The card base is made from Centura pearl cardstock.  The brown and pink cardstock is core d'inations.  The border is cut with a Martha Stewart punch.  The paper was  in my stash.  The embossed panel is using Swiss Dots folder.  Sentiment is from Tulip.  Buttons from my stash.

Thanks for looking.

The Pixie Cottage - Anything Goes and or sketch (ends 06/03)
Divas by Design - Spots and or Stripes (ends 06/03)

Simple but effective, i think!
