Farm Fresh Sketch
This week over at the Greeting Farm blog Mercy has given us a fabulous sketch to work this! You are going to LOVE it.
For my card I used cute little Harold eating a little toast and jam. Isn’t he the cutest! I love this little guy. 😀 I colored him with Copics to match the Thrift Shop paper by October Afternoon. I cut him out with a Nestie’s label and sponged the edges with Peeled Paint Distress Ink. I used a Martha Stewart Punch Around the Page punch for the strip of loops and a Spellbinders flower for a little accent. To add the stitching I pierced the paper first and then connected the dots with a white gel pen because well lets face it… I’m afraid of my sewing machine and this way I know the stitches will be mostly straight, lol. The last couple of finishing details are a couple of Dew Drops, a yellow Prima flower and the sentiment is from Kraftin Kimmie’s everyday sentiments.
Here’s a closer look at cute little Harold.
And here’s a peak at Mercy’s sketch. I flipped it left to right so Harold was not facing off the card.
