Shine Your LIGHT & A SALE!





Have I told you lately that I LOOOOVE my Copic Markers???? I KNOW! I am sorry that is all that you see on here anymore! I just can't help but color things with them! I took this wonderful stamp of a lighthouse by Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps {CLICK HERE TO SEE IT}, colored it with Copics and then cropped it down to size. This card is based on THE SWEET STOP sketch #SSS24, my first sketch submission for this sketch blog that I am a designer for until March or so!! (YEA!)

Be sure to see ALL of the designers' cards not only at The Sweet Stop but on their blogs {listed in my sidebar} as well! There may be more details of their cards on their personal blogs... Just like mine here above shows a detailed picture of the lower half of my card. I took a sparkly gel pen and outlined the swirls and birds on the white patterned paper of my card. Just to give it a special touch! If you have time, hop on over to The Sweet Stop and play along with the sketch!
Hope you have a great weekend!
