spots and stripes...

-
This weeks Papertake Weekly challenge is (you guessed it) Spots and Stripes. The challenge is sponsored by Simon Says Stamp. Make sure you check out the blog to see all the great stuff the team has done and you really want to play along since I am sure there is a prize involved.

I needed a little inspiration so I turned to the Mojo Monday sketch challenge for a little bump to my mojo. I colored up Henry Mouse with my Lyra colored pencils, blended with odorless mineral spirits and a paper stump. I added a little bit of glitter with my Sakura glitter pen and some shine with my glaze pen. Cut him out with my circle Nesties and sponged around the edge with some chalk ink. What I used:
Whiff of Joy Henry Celebrating Mouse
Stampin' Up! Full of Life
GP white
My Mind's Eye Everyday Tango
Momento black stamp pad
VersaMagic Pink Petunia chalk ink
Nesties circle and scallop circle
Lyra colored pencils, OMS and blending stump
white satin ribbon
sponge
