I love this sketch of Ally's, something about the circle in the square and the stars inspired me to use these earthy papers from Basic Grey Granola, and I love the kind of western/dude feel it has! I turned my clasped hands from "Hand in Hand" upside down to look like a "hip hip hurray moment", the stars and worn denim-like paper just make me think "rodeo" LOL! I don't make enough guy cards and I think this would work pretty well...Image is colored with Copics, sponged with Antique Linen distressing ink and I used a piercing template and marker to make the dotted detail around the edge.
Be sure to check out Allison's sketch and more samples with it here!
Have a blessed Easter!
Oh that is a fun sketch!!! And a fun card with a "high 5" feel!!!!

Saw this wonderful card and thought of my neice who completed Army Basic training a little over a year ago. Maybe it's the two stars on either side of the hands. But right after the graduation ceremony I was lucky enough to attend Chessy and one of her unit mates clasped raised hands just like this in celebration of surviving Basic successfully!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the memories. I'll have to send this link to Chess so she can remember too.
Hugs and blessings - Jean
