Hi, Today I have for you a card for the Sketch over at MFT. I so enjoyed putting this idea together. It all started when I thought how can I make the background of a card a little different and more creative than the traditional grass and sky. I thought why not try a stencil to stand in for the sun. What do you think? I kinda like it. I am sure you have seen this technique but I will explain it in case you haven’t. First, you take the stencil you have chosen and tape it down over your paper then take your next stencil-which I have used a circle cut out of a piece of acetate and tape it over that stencil and now you are ready to ink it up. After my background was complete, I used both Copic markers and colored pencils for my medium. I tried to make the cute koalas’ fur look soft and cuddly.
I am really enjoying card making these days. I especially enjoy coloring, as it has become really therapeutic for me.
Some card Details: MFT-Stamps, Rounded Mod Rectangles, and Stitched Hills, SSS-Stencil, Oxide Inks
Take care of yourself and as the card states…Hang In There! Nanc’

I’m so far behind on commenting and I won’t be doing so on all your cards but I am looking at them and oohing and aahing, Nancy. The stencil for the sun was a great idea and those koalas are so cute. I’m glad you enjoyed coloring them,
