I wanted to play a little bit in my craft room last night. I went searching for a good card sketch as a starting point. I found this one on Mojo Monday sketch blog.
I placed this piece of designer paper from the Raspberry Lemonade paper pack in my large circle big shot die. I cut the sides straight so that just one end was cut in a semi circle. I punched a strip of Taken with Teal cardstock with the eyelet border punch. I then distressed it back and forth with my bone folder. I can't find my paper crimper so I cut triangles in each scallop to make it bend a little easier around the curve. I attached this with sticky strip. I blended the color with my ink pads and a versamarker instead of a blender pen. It is so smooth! I really prefer this method of coloring. Just be sure to use stazon so the outlined image doesn't bleed.
