Sherrod Studio Sketch # 1

I hope you all had a blast with the Bombshell Hump Day Hop! The team showcased some fabulous cards, didn't they? We'll do it all over again next Wednesday so be sure to stop back by then!! THANK YOU all SO much for all of the wonderful comments!!!

Now, today, I am showing you a card I made using a sketch from Sherrod Studio. This is the first sketch that the Sherrod Studio's Design Team has done and it's a fun one! Simple, but I love it! Here is the sketch if you'd like to play along...

...and here is the card that I created using that sketch...

I used the Birthday Ella stamp set. I love this little girl image. She's so sweet and innocent looking and I just LOVE those feet! The image is stamped onto GP110 white cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink, and colored with my Copic Markers. I then stamped the "Celebrate Your Day" underneath of Ella and then sponged around the edges of the image using SU's Certainly Celery. I layered the finished image onto SU's Certainly Celery and Ballet Blue. The card base is textured Ballet Blue, with a layer of Certainly Celery. The patterned paper maker is unknown. It was part of a HUGE stack of DPs that I received in a blog candy a while ago. The ribbons are both from the Offray Ribbon Outlet in Hagerstown, MD. I also attached 3 self-stick green gems to the side of the image. They're "Bling It" gems from Basic Grey. Not sure how much they'll show up in the picture, but trust me- they're there! :)

My fellow Sherrod Studio Design Team members will be showcasing their take on this sketch today as well, so make sure to stop by their blogs to see what they've come up with!
