Blogger Challenge: Week 110

This week’s blogger challenge was a sketch provided by Lisa. I went back to my Unity August Store Kit of the Month for this one. This kit has so many fun images!

I love the adorable measuring cup image and matching sentiment in the kit. The image is colored with Copic markers. It doesn't show in the photo, but I covered the measuring spoons with a matching gray Glaze pen for a sort of metallic look. I added a photo corner to the top left corner of the image to balance my design a little.

I paired the measuring cup and measuring spoons with some Cosmo Cricket designer paper. I matched the red in the paper to SU!'s Riding Hood Red and used that for the bottom panel. I added some dotted grosgrain ribbon and a decorative strip made with the Fiskars Apron Lace punch between the patterned and solid papers.

The sentiment is stamped directly on the red cardstock in black ink. I added a matching red punched heart, embossed with a dotted pattern for interest and to help it stand out against the matching background.

For more fabulous samples based on this sketch, you can visit the rest of the challenge players. Links to their blogs are in the sidebar on the right.
