This week Chris has a wonderful Sketch Challenge for us!




The lovely image is from  ODBD's "Mother Teresa"! The water lily was stamped then colored using Copic Markers! I embossed the water with clear e/p to give it shine  A Spellbinders Lattice Rectangle was used  to cut out and frame the lily. The sentiment was stamped and embossed using versamark and clear e/p.  The small panels were embossed using SU Sizzix E/F.  The dp is from K&Co.

This is the sketch Chris has for us!



Please stop by to see what the ODBD Challenge have created:


We hope you will play along with us, we would love to see what you create!

Hope you have a beautiful Easter Day and weekend! Hugs!
