Sympathy - TMS #232


Today at Tuesday Morning Sketches, we have another blast from the past.  This week, Bonnie chose the sketch.  

This is the second challenge of the month, so it is our Judged Challenge with a Twist!!  :)  These are always fun! Follow the sketch, add the twist, and you can win!  We also will pick a Top 5!  This week's twist is -- TONE ON TONE (MONOCHROMATIC).


I rarely do monochromatic cards, so this prompt was great for me.  I love the look just never seem to do it.   Of course, I had to emboss my panels! :)   I used CB Swiss Dots and Perfect Paisley folders and inked the edges with Colorbox Cat's Eye "Dune."   I love this sentiment and use it often, but unfortunately, I have no idea where I got it. :/ 

Here's the sketch Bonnie chose.. #184 from Feb. 5/13


This week our sponsor is our very own awesome and wonderful Jessi!!!  She is sponsoring and the winner will receive several of her crocheted mats.  They are BEAUTIFUL!!!  You will love to use them on your creations, I guarantee!!  You could win 12 mats - 4 red, 4 pink, and 4 white...



Thanks for stopping by!  Be sure to go check out the creations from the rest of our DT...

This card is a stunner, Debbie. I always love embossing and it is especially nice how you so subtly inked it.

Those crocheted mats are fantastic. What a great idea.

Oh, I love that sentiment, too.

Blessing hugs,
Teresa
