You Brighten My Day

Here's my card for the current sketch at Freshly Made Sketches.  This design came together super quick using the Watt's Up? stamp set from SugarPea Designs.

I stamped two of the set's light bulb images on a narrow white panel, using a fine tip pen to extend the images to the top of the panel.  The bulbs were colored with Copic markers.  I was going for a glow-like look for the bulbs, so I lightly shaded the bulbs with pale blue, then outlined the images in yeullow.  The bulbs were coated with a light layer of clear glitter from a glitter pen for added sparkle and shine.  After matting the image panel on yellow cardstock, I adhered it to a gray card base.  The set's "you brighten my day" sentiment was stamped on a narrow strip of cardstock and matted on yellow cardstock.  I added it to the cardfront and accented it with a trio of sparkly silver sequins.

Materials Used:
Watt's Up? stamp set (SugarPea Designs); Memento Tuxedo Black ink (Tsukineko/IMAGINE Crafts); markers (Copic); clear Sparkle glitter brush pen (Spectrum Noir); Lemon Drop and Steel Grey cardstock (My Favorite Things); silver sequins
