Hello Stampers!
Well yesterday it rained all day. It was a gentle rain most of the day so it was a perfect day to craft. I spent the day cleaning my bathrooms and holding Remi for Jess. The poor little thing caught Zoie’s cold and was miserable. She could not settle down and get comfortable. Jess and I took turns and Jess also went to the store. Hopefully she will start to feel better soon.
Today is our Coloring Down the Lines blog hop. This week our colors were chosen by Liz
Stampin’ Up color matches
I had an idea for a sketch challenge that I wanted to try with these colors. The challenge was at Nacho Average Challenges
My original idea was to stamp the same image and use the emboss resist technique. Then I thought it would be fun to try stamping an image on the layer and the same image on scrap paper so I can punch out my circles. I decided to do some coloring using ink in the lid technique. It is hard to tell but the layer is on a black card base. Here is what I came up with.

Thanks for visiting me today. I am headed to the yarn shop later today. I am working on getting all my started projects off my needles so I can start a new one. Have a Wonderful Wednesday!
