I felt like crafting tonight and when I was browsing Pinterest earlier, I saw the sketch challenge for The Paper Players. It ends at noon tomorrow so I’m cutting it a bit close LOL!
I initially set out to make a flower card using some of the new 2014-2016 In Colors, but when I saw this wave paper in the new Moonlight DSP stack, I changed my mind and made a masculine card! I did use the new Lost Lagoon In Color for the card base and ink for the fish. This is the first time I’ve inked up the By the Tide set. I added a birthday sentiment from Four You to make it into a card I can give my boss in July. I’m way ahead…will someone remind me where I put the card?? LOL. I’m not used to doing things in advance!
Here is the sketch~
I’ll have to make that flower card tomorrow since I have everything set out on my desk still!
Thanks for visiting!
