Today's sketch for Freshly Made Sketch challenges comes from Cindy and can go in so many different directions.
I decided to make a slightly non-traditional Valentine's card for one of my boys.
I used an image from Penny Black's transparent set called Toadily. I stamped my toad onto Xpress-it cardstock and colored with Copics. I mounted every layer onto Basic Black to keep to a green color scheme. The DSP is from Epic Day and the sentiment is from Avery Elle's Oh Happy Day set - love that calligraphy font!
The inside is finished very simply.
Products used:
Stamps: Toadily (Penny Black), Oh Happy Day (Avery Elle)
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Cardstock: Gumball Green, Basic Black, Xpress-it, Whisper White, Epic Day DSP
Accessories: Copic markers, sequins
Cheers
Karren

Your card is wonderful! Having a son this is a perfect card for a boy!!! Great coloring on that toad.
This is so cute...and so very nicely done in every way.
I love your bright bold green and black and the little froggie. I really must check out the PB clear stamps. All mine are wood.

I don't think I've ever seen a Valentine quite like this! Very, very cool!
