Tuesday Morning Sketches #221


Happy Tuesday to you!!!  Time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!!

We have a most WONDERFUL and AMAZING sponsor this week... our very own Jessi!  She makes beautiful crocheted frames!!  Play along and you could win!  The prize is 20 crocheted mats!!

She also provided our sketch this week...

And here is my card...


It was one of those days when I was not too thrilled with the result... what I had in my head just didn't quite translate to the card, but it is pretty, though it looks better IRL.  I have some of Jessi's crocheted frames and intended to use one, but I have run out of A2 cards.  This one is smaller and the frame took too much of the card, so I pulled out my Spellbinders Lacey Circles to frame the image.  The sentiment is a clear stamp from Clear Dollar.  And of course, I embossed the extra circles... Darice Large Petal and CB Swiss Dots.  It think it's cool... the Paper Studio CS is white core, so that shows through and looks distressed even though I didn't distress it.

My image is Little Lighthouse from Doodle Pantry... 



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

The embossing on the 'flower' circles makes me think of sand dollars! So perfect for a lighthouse card. LOVE that sweet lighthouse with the heart beacon :)
