Today the Paper Craft Planet Super Novas are excited to play along with the Crafter's Companion team for our weekly sketch challenge, and we would love to have you play along too. Here's the fun sketch above, and you can find more info on the PCP Blog as well! If you would like to play along, upload your card to the PCP Gallery and tag it with SK061413. Here's my version of the sketch:
Since I pretty much have no product from Crafter's Companion (I think I need to do something about that, don't you?), I chose to break out my Dreamweaver and Stampendous products for this. My layered papers are all Bazzill, the top one machine-embossed with the Dreamweaver Mosaic Swirls, as well as the focal circle with the Orchid Crest design. Leaving the orchid stencil in place, I daubed Palette glue over the surface and heated it lightly until tacky. Then I broke out my tiny stencil brushes and several colors of Dreamweaver Metallic F/X powders to color the embossed design. A few rhinestones and a light tracing with my Sakura Clear Star pen, and I was satisfied. Since this card will end up being a sympathy card for a very close family friend who just lost her mother, I added appropriate thoughts from the Stampendous Friendly Phrases and the Sincere Sentiments set.
Now is your opportunity to check out both teams' sketch versions, and there's a bonus for doing so...
YES ~ there is a prize!!! For each comment left on the blogs listed below, you will be entered into a drawing for a $20 gift certificate courtesy of Crafter's Companion.
