Tennis LOVE Sketch Saturday #513

May 12, 2018

It's time for a new challenge at Sketch Saturday!

We have one of our favorites joining us as sponsor this week.

Sasayaki Glitter!!

The super prize offered this week is

a digital stamp of the winner's choice.

~~~~~~

Here is sketch #513:

My card is created on a white card base. This card is a 5 x 5 square. I do not own any tennis paper and I found this digital paper on Etsy and copied it I didn't even know you could do that. It was so exciting. It is from Sports Printables. I love tennis and this is the only tennis stamp I own. I beg the stamp companies to come out with some tennis stamps soon!!!!! I stamped and colored my image using Art Impressions Birthday Love stamp set. I colored her with Copic Markers and added Wink of Stella for shine. I used my new Scan N Cut Machine to cut her out. I used Claire's ABC's stamps from Lawn Fawn to create the "LOVE" sentiment. The word tennis is stamped using the Your Next Stamp Sports Fanatics Two stamp set. A button was added to complete the sketch.

Thank you for stopping by my blog! Don't forget to visit all the DT blogs for lots of inspiration! We sure hope you will play along with us!

HUGS!

Today I am playing along with the Freshly Made Sketches challenge. I have been so busy lately that I haven't had time to play with their sketch and I love their creations!

Here is their sketch for this week:

The sentiment is from Your Next Stamp Sports Fanatics Two stamp set. I needed a thank you card for a lady on my tennis team and I think this will make her smile! I had fun creating it!

Thanks for stopping by my blog today!

My card is created on a white card base. I found the pink and white gingham checks, the tea cups and the circle DSP in my stash. I created all the sketch elements with these DSP papers. I used a stamp by Uniko Stamps I Love Tea for the cup and the sentiment. I paper pieced the tea cup. I added pink enamel dots to complete my card.
