Here's this week's sketch...

Here's my take on Jen's sketch...I used die cut hearts in a variety of mediums (felt, cork, paper) for the circles on the sketch, just because it's so darn close to V-day. Sneak peek of a TCP sentiment that will be released Tuesday, February 9th...papers by October Afternoon (Lucky Duck).

Here's a close-up of the sentiment cluster...don't you just love that pink/white polka dotted paper?! The texture on the pink heart comes from all the scratches on my Big Shot sandwich plates, so when I die cut the heart, instant texture...nice by-product, huh?! As you can also see, my sentiment is a big smudged...always in too much of a hurry, and the ink smudged when I edged the flag with some PTI chamomile tea dye ink. Stick pins are Maya Road and button is from PTI's vintage buttons in Aqua Mist.

I can't wait to touch base with the rest of the crew: Jen & February Designer of the Month, Kelly, Amy, Leigh and Susan. Have a great weekend, all!
