We have a new sketch for you over at Freshly Made Sketches. This week our hostess, Linda Callahan, who loves a good pun even more than I do, has a great sketch for us. Take a look:
I needed a baby card this week, and was disappointed to see that my stash was totally depleted. So I pulled a new set off my shelf which will be available with the new catalog next month, Animal Outing, and used it. It was the only set I have left that is appropriate for a baby card after pulling all of my retiring sets off the shelf. Fortunately, there are some really cute ones in the new catalog, and I will have to get a couple.
I colored the sweet pair with my watercolor pencils and a blender pen. When I got this set, I didn’t notice that the kangaroo had a koala bear in its pouch. When I went to color it, I was taken by surprise — wait, that’s not a baby kangaroo. I guess this would also be a great card for an adoption.
I did use some retiring products on this one — the dsp, washi tape, and doily (tears are sliding down my face right now for this one).
We hope you’ll join us and create your own card using the sketch! We love to see what you do with the sketch. Meanwhile, be sure to stop by the Freshly Made Sketches site to see what the design team has created for your inspiration.
Enjoy your Wednesday! Thanks for stopping by!
this is so adorable…the colors are perfect and the details that you added add so much, and I agree what a neat card idea for an “adoption celebration.”
That kangaroo is just too cute and so is his “baby”. You’re so right that this would be the perfect image for an adoption card.
This is adorable! I thought the same thing when I realized it was a koala…..say what! But very cute card!
Oh I just love this card Amy! That little kangaroo is too cute! I love the colour combination and that sweet doily! It is sad they’re retiring but thankfully our dollar store sells them!!!
Oh I LOVE this card! It’s a totally perfect image for a baby card and has such an aussie feel!
Awww, this is a wonderful baby card. I didn’t notice the koala until you mentioned it. And I think you’re right – this is a perfect image to celebrate an adoption!
