Sketch Saturday 101
What a nasty little sketch this week!
I had a little play with the Essentials Distressing Kit, mmm not sure.
After colouring the image, I pulled out the flat stamp and Tea Stain Distressing Ink and rubbed on the ink, then added a little water to soften the Tea Stain. Â I’ve also put Tea Stain on the card base and the For You tag.
I think my blending could have been a little better, but playing has to start somewhere right?

Beautiful watercolouring and how gorgeous is that ribbon treatment … is that tafetta celery or olive I cant tell? It matches the pear pizazz beautifully!
Oh so beautiful!!! I love the distressing!
This is beautiful! The tea staining really adds a lot and your coloring is well done too.
