It's Thursday and you know what that means...it Inchie Sketch time! Makes me soooo happy. Without delay, let's get to the sketch - as always, don't be afraid to turn it if you are inclined.
I put together a fun little quad of fruit and preserve themed Itty Bitty stamps by Lockhart for this sketch and used Adirondack Dye Ink Pads to water color the images.
Stamp the IB Cherries, IB Jar of Jam, IB Jar of Berries and the IB Pear with Graphite Black Brilliance Ink (Tsukineko) on White Inchie Squares (Inchie Arts, LLC).
Press the lid of the Red Pepper Adirondack Ink to the pad and use the lid as your palette to dilute the color with a Niji Waterbrush. Lay down a VERY light layer of ink on the cherries.
Repeat the process with Cranberry Adirondack Ink, this time just highlighting the cherries.
Lay down a light layer of Willow Adirondack Ink on the leaves and tops of the jars.
Highlight the green areas with Lettuce Adirondack Ink.
Color the Jar of Jam and Pear with Lemonade first and then highlight with Sandal Adirondack Ink.
Use the Red and Clear Spica Glitter Pens to add some depth to the images.
Here is a shot of my final images.
Other Supplies Used:
-Material Girl 6x6 Mini Deck Paper (Cosmo Cricket)
-Red Pepper Duplex Cardstock (Memory Box)
-Can It Stamp Set (Cornish Heritage Farms)
-Trinket Pins, Crystals (Maya Road)
-Scalloped Dot Border Punch (Martha Stewart)
-white pearls (Kaisercraft)
This card was just a delight to make - I hope you enjoy the sketch this week. :) I am going to make you wait one more day to announce the winner of this week's inchie stamp.
Inchingly Yours, Lisa
Great sketch and lovely card. The images you used are so sweet.
