sending you sunshine

this is post 2 of 2 for today...please pop over HERE for The Craft's Meow July Preview!


Today's sketch finishes off the month of June....Our June Sketch Artist, Latisha, has done it again...such a fab sketch:

Check out how it inspired me:


Hmmm....some of the stitching looks blue but it is actually white....I used PTI New Leaf/SU Barely Banana cardstock.  The ink is PTI Aqua mist and Memento Rich Cocoa.  I managed to combine 2 Skipping Stones Design sets:




Uplifting

My color combo was inspired by the latest CR84FN:


Magnificent group of colors, eh?

You won't wanna miss the fabbie goodness from the other gals on the Skipping Stones Design Team:

    This is so pretty, Amy. I'm so glad you used the Timeless Textures stamp. I bought this set a month ago and still haven't used it. Thanks for your idea on the background. I'm not big into stamping, so this is indeed helpful.
    Hugs!
