SCS Sketch Challenge 173

Hello again!! Two posts in one day!! That's a rarity for me...

I made this card for today's sketch challenge over at Splitcoast. This was a really fun and easy sketch! I even decided to try my hand at watercoloring, which is not as easy as it looks!! LOL...

I knew I wanted to use my new Time For You set from the Stampin' Up! Occasions Mini and I paired it up with the Afternoon Tea DSP (love that paper!)

So here's some deets: The card base is a 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 piece of Chocolate Chip folded in half. The next layer is Groovy Guava, then Whisper White, then the Afternoon DSP. Each layer is 1/8" smaller then the next. I stamped the bike from Time For You in Palette Noir Black ink onto watercolor paper and colored it in with ink from the lids with a blender pen and aquapainter. Colors I used were Groovy Guava, Soft Sky, Creamy Caramel and Close to Cocoa. I also used a Going Gray marker in the hardware of the bike and blended with an aquapainter. The brads are from the Styled Silver HPH and were lined up using the mat pack and piercing tool. I wasn't sure where I could fit a sentiment and decided to use the Circle of Friendship set and mount it in the corner. It was punched out with many sizes of circle punches. All layers are mounted on dimensionals.

Thanks for stopping by!
