Tuesday Morning Sketches #767

 Hello!  Thank you for stopping by.  The latest revisited sketch is up at Tuesday Morning Sketches and it's another great one from Debbie.  

My card is for a very special little girl who just turned two.  She is my close friend's granddaughter and so sweet and sassy.  I made this using an svg cut from Silhouette Design Studio and papers from Pink and Main.  Square cards are so much fun - such a nice big canvas and I needed it for this little bear...


I love paper piecing - it's therapeutic.  I cut the whole design out of white card stock and colored using inks and blending brushes.  This gives the bear texture.  The balloons, the blue one I used a stencil first and then filled in the color.  The pink one I applied the ink first and then used a stencil from Simon Says Stamp and some Glacier Paste (Shooting Stars - appropriate) to add the sparkle.  Once that was dry I added the baker's twine to the balloons and popped on dimensionals.  I die cut the name from glitter card stock and popped that up, too.  I meant to die cut this flower image I have that would be perfect for the pompom on his hat, but I forgot.  

Although not pictured, I did use the negative piece of the balloons as a stencil to decorate the envelope.  Turned out fabulous.

I hope to see you over at the TMS blog to join us.  Leave some love for the team.
