Thought this sketch was perfect for my new (to me...it's actually from The Vault!) stamp Adventure Is Calling from the Pure Innocence line. I don't usually send out cards to someone going on a trip or new adventure, but it was her sweet hat that kept calling out to me and I just had to have her!
I used the sketch layout to make it look like she's on a BIG boat and is ready to set sail for her big adventure!
I colored her with Copics except for her suitcase which I paper pieced to be reminiscent of older days. Behind the porthole window I used MFT's Cloud MIX-ABLES STENCIL with some Salty Ocean Distress Ink and a blender brush to mimic what she might see looking out her window at sea.
This challenge is open for a few more days yet, so check it out right HERE and play along.
Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!
She is a doll, Marcia! I love that ship port hole you gave her. Gosh, I'm jealous of a stamp image going on a trip in the sunshine, yikes! Guess I miss the sun here.

Oh goodness is she ever sweet! This is an adorable card Marcia. You could always imagine that her suitcase is full of stamping goodies...like when you get together with Michele!!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, she is as sweet as can be Marcia! I agree with Lisa, that her suitcase is just filled to the brim with stamps for your next big stamping adventure. <3
