Friends

Happy weekend friends! Just poppin' in with a card I made for Kimber McGray's Saturday sketch challenge over at Two Peas. This card is actually for last Saturday's sketch. I have really grown to love sketches. Always a great starting point. 

I recently got in an order from 2Peas full of new My Minds Eye goodies. I used papers from this 6 x6 pad and that awesome butterfly comes from this layered sticker pack. I started with a kraft card base and did a little misting with some Mister Huey's Calico White (love that stuff!). Since I seem to have a problem with just doing "a little" misting, I added some Glimmer Mist, too, in Tattered Leather. I can't tell you how many projects I've ruined from getting "spray happy", but this time I really liked the end result. The kraft paper turned into a kind of slate color and just went with the feel of the whole project (well, at least I think so...lol). In fact, when I went to stamp the sentiment in some Walnut Stain Distress Ink, it turned out a grayish color. Pretty cool I thought! 


Kimber posted a new Saturday sketch challenge today. If you want to play along go here
I am off to play with my boys and enjoy today's gorgeous weather! Enjoy your weekend and I'll be back soon! :)
