Today's OWH sketch went together pretty fast for me, because I already had the center "Love" stamp colored. I bought Inktense pencils because of Jennifer McGuire's recent blogposts about it (she enabled me, darn it!). They really are as good as she claims!
I white embossed the "Love" stamp and then used the watercolor pencils and a water brush to color it in. The papers I used are from the Simon Says Stamp August Card kit:
This really was a 15 minute card for me. Woohoo!
Yesterday I went to my first card & cookie swap and had a great time. I was inspired by so many of the cards that the ladies prepared and we spent hours happily making each other's cards and chatting.
These are some of the cards that I made:
The ladies made not only cards, but gift cards, tags and candy holders - very creative. I hope we do this again soon.
I can't believe we're into December already, but I've got plenty of holiday cards to send off now so I can concentrate on getting more OWH cards done! Hope you had a nice weekend.
Love that card. Nice idea to use the breads in the corners. I'm glad you enjoyed yourself at your swap. The cards you made a fantastic, quite a nice range. Nice Job.
