Patriotic Lily - Sketch 58


Happy 4th of July!!! I made this for the Sketch Saturday #58 challenge. I really LOVE this layout! I'm so glad that I saw Anna's card first. I was just about to start coloring when I saw her post. It brought to my attention that there was an extra challenge to make an American themed card. I've never been good and reading directions :) Lily is colored in with Copics. I added some highlights to the image with a white Sharpie Poster-Paint pen. I cut her out and popped her up with some dimensionals. The paper is from the October Afternoon Nightlight line. I love that the read piece has little stars inside some of the circles! Thanks so much for stoppin' by. I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend and having a fabulous celebration!

Stamps: Lily at the Beach (Pink Cat Studio), A Muse sentiment
Paper: Bashful Blue, Very Vanilla, October Afternoon Nightlight - Jack & Charles
Ink: Memento Black
Other: Copics, white Sharpie Poster-Paint pen, rectangle Nestie, dimensional, buttons from my stash, Sky Blue Scrapper's Floss (TAC), Vanilla grosgrain, Queen & Co. brad
Copics: E00, E21, E31, E33, R24, R27, R 81, B21, B23, B45
