Sugar Creek Hollow Sketch Challenge

This week, Sugar Creek Hollow has a sketch challenge. Here is the sketch...


...and here is my card...


Stamps: Barn Swallow (Sugar Creek Hollow), Fancy Flexible Phrases (SU! retired)
Paper: K&Co
Accessories:Copics Airbrush System, Flower, Inkssentials Ink Blending Tool, MS Branch Punch, flat back pearls, Spellbinders Fancy Tags


I colored Barn Swallow with Copics, and then added some detail with a feather brush and distress ink.


I used my Copics Airbrush System with blue and brown to color my flower. I always try to match my Copics colors to the color in the paper I am using.

I am also entering this in A Spoon Full of Sugar Challenge which is anything with an animal on it.

Thanks for stopping by today. Go check out the beautiful digis at Sugar Creek Hollow, and have a great weekend!
