Well I did this card this week end and really like the new tech. I will be looking at my stamps again to see which ones I can use doing this.. I don't know what the tech. is called but sure was fun..

 Used the new Brushstix by Tsukineko with TH Distress Inks.. Do they ever work nice.. (they are in at Creative Accents right now and I will be taking in my card to the store tomorrow so you can have a closer look) I don't have this stamp myself borrowed it from Good Friend Miss. O
Flower is black Embossed  then you blend your colors till happy with.. Used on of my new
Tim Holtz labels and ribbon from my stash.. Don't remember the paper used sorry..

Sketch #6 at Graphicat

Well here it is time for another Graphicat Sketch #6 
Worked on this Card at a Crop Cheri hosted for her sons School Trip..
What a blast we all had or I think everyone at our table sure did.  

So here is the one I did for this challenge..

I turned the sketch 90 degrees to fit with my new image (stamp I got from Graphicat)
Pictute could be better but it was hard getting a clear shot all done in pale pinks and peaches.

Now I did get some other cards done as well.. I managed to finish 6 cards yes I counted twice
except for the insides..
Not bad for only taking part in the one day of the crop and I had so much fun as well.. Meet some
new people..laughed a lot.. ate far to much.. got a friend into making cards..Now what more could
you ask for.. Below is a picture of 3 of the cards I got done..

Now granted they are all the same image but I only had one precolored before the crop.. I have another one as well but won't be putting it up till later as it is for another challenge..

Thanks for droping by..
Take Care all and have a great day..
