HAND STAMPED SENTIMENTS #434

A great sketch for you this week at Hand Stamped Sentiments.  I grabbed a background I had in my stash and used it as my background.  

For the bottom shape I used a stencil and some Tim Holtz Victorian Velvet Distress Oxide Inks - one of my favourite colours.  The top shape was stamped with a stamp by Francoise Read called Notebook Page and I stamped the flower again on top.  

The flower stamp is from Sam Poole called Butterfly Walk and I added some of the other stamps from the set to the background.  The sentiment is an old one from Clearly Besotted. 

HAND STAMPED SENTIMENTS #422

We have another Sketch Challenge for you this week at Hand Stamped Sentiments.  

I' ve used two sets from Sam Poole for Creative Expressions.  The background is from a set called Timeless Roses and I've used the numbers strip for my cross pieces.  I then used a set called Butterfly Walk to create the panel down the middle. I added the colours using Tim Holtz Distress Watercolour Pencils - a new addition which I'm having fun playing with. 

I'm adding this into the following challenges:
