Tuesday Morning Sketches #746

 Hello!  Thank you for stopping by.  I do appreciate your visit.  The latest sketch is up at Tuesday Morning Sketches and I would really like you to think brushstrokes.  You don't have to, but it could be a lot of fun.

My card features Embellishment Mousse from Tonic Studios lovely flowers and sentiment from Brutus Monroe.  The card stock is Dove from Concord & 9th.


I started off with painting Embellishment mousse in gray and pink with a very stiff stencil brush.  You know the kind, the one that looks like my Grandpa's shaving cream brush?  Using this is what allowed for the brushstrokes and in person, this is so amazing and the pink looks pink instead of white.

I heat embossed the flowers with Raven embossing powder from Brutus Monroe and then colored then with the embellishment mousse by thinning it with water and painting.  The leaves I colored with alcohol markers.  The sentiment is from Super Sentimental also from Brutus Monroe.  

The flowers are part of set called Smells Like Spring which is on the Retirement List.  You can get the set and coordinating die set for $26.99!  

I hope you'll join us at Tuesday Morning Sketches and be sure to leave the team some love!

Really pretty! I never thought to use my stencil brush for this. I brought one of those with me. The gray/pink combo looks great.
