MMSC120 -- Pair of Skates


Happy Tuesday, everyone!  I have a card to share today for the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge (SC120) .  I combined the sketch with a beautiful, new digital image, Pair of Ice Skates, by "priscillastyles".  I colored my image with Copics; added some jewelry spacers and silver rhinestones to create "faux" metal pegs; and used some patterned 'ice skates' paper that I have been hoarding in my stash waiting for the perfect image. I also added a panel of striped vellum for interest and texture.  A big glitzy bow was all I needed and my design was finished.  Don't you just love when an idea you have in your head works out on paper!? 

I will be entering this card in the following challenges:
Creative Belli Challenge #125 -- Acetate or Vellum

Have a great day and thanks so much for stopping by!

  2. What a wonderful card, love the colors and the image is so much fun. What a great idea to use spacers as to hang the skates, I never think about my jewelry making things on my cards. Love it.
