Sketch Saturday- Happy Birthday to Ye!

Hello, hello! Hope you've all had a great week. Sorry I haven't posted in the past week but I've been trying to get ahead with DT work. I did say I was going to post a video showing you my new papers but my technical support (hubbie) and technical equipment (hubbie's laptop) was away so I didn't get the chance!

Anyway, here I am to show you my very first card as a Sketch Saturday DT member!! I'm so over the moon to be part of this team- I love doing complicated sketches!!

I have used this cute High Hopes stamp, coloured with copics and bottom shadow created using Lyra pencils. These papers are by Echo Park called Times and Seasons. Sentiment is also High Hopes and the number die and "th" are by MFT.

Close up of copic colouring!

Here is the sketch! As you can see I rotated it. Do please pop along to view all the other wonderful designs by the Saturdays! The sponsor this week is the fabulous Stamp Fairy who make THE cutest digis!!!

I'd like to enter this into:

Creative Card Crew- masculine
Crafters Companion- anything goes
Desert Island Crafters- itinerary- I've chosen 2 or more patterned papers, green (paper), polka dots (paper), 2 or more diecuts
Kaboodle Doodles- boy/masculine
Crafty Emma- spots n dots - is my polka dot paper enough?!
Glitter Geeks- girls and boys

Thanks for stopping by today! x
