US188 - Happy Birthday to the Music Teacher

 I'm so excited to have been chosen as one of the Top 3 at last week's Unscripted Sketches, for this card.  It was my first time playing and I really love how everyone interpreted the sketch differently, to make it their own.

For this week's sketch:

I turned the sketch on its side and went with an idea that's been in my head for a while. I love to make music cards for musical people and this will be perfect for Kate's piano/vocal teacher (once I find out when her birthday is!). I used the candle from Paper Smooches Hey Sugar set and drew the lines with a ruler. The sentiment is from Hero Arts.

US187, LIM96, DD31 - Poinsettia

For three challenges:

Unscripted Sketches 187: (which my friend Geri plays along with - go check out her card for this challenge along with her other work - it's all amazing!)

Dynamic Duos 31

and this week's Less is More challenge, which is also to use green and red.

I used my Uniko geometric flower to make a poinsettia. First, I coloured it with Copics. But I wasn't happy with the coverage and wasn't sure how to make the black centre yellow. So I turned to my favourite embellishment - Stickles, and just coloured it in. And then waited overnight for it to dry (that's always the hard part for me!)

And then it started raining. And it didn't stop, so there was not much light for this photo.

Don't forget to drop back tomorrow for this week's CASology cue card. (I'll give you a little hint - this card would qualify!)
