Tuesday Morning Sketches #111

Today at Tuesday Morning Sketches we have a great sketch from DT member Kathy Curry and it's a great sketch! We also have Whimsie Doodles as our sponsor. I love Melyssa Connolly's work. Most of you may know that she also draws for TSG. So I'm totally excited to work with some of her digital images.

This week is a judged challenge - you need to decorate your card inside and out. As I am writing this post I just realized that I did not decorate the inside of my card. My apologies. 

For my card this week I selected a new digi from the Whimsie shop called Steampunk Lizzie. I have been seeing some cards with a "steampunk" theme. I had to look that up to learn where the idea is coming from. Well I didn't go ALL out steampunk, as this is my first try. I thought I'd be a little toned down. I colored the image to reflect the coloring on the Whimsie blog. I just loved the image and wanted it to come close to what I saw. I totally love how this card came out. I hope you do to. I can't wait to hear your thoughts.

Thanks for stopping by. Have an awesome day!!

 I had a great time with this sketch. Now I had to change the orientation of my card because of the image - which I think is absolutely darling.

When I began my card I decided I would fashion it after my own bathroom. The tiles on my walls are yellow with a light blue trim. What I was trying to achieve with the carpet in the image are the carpets that are shag, two-toned in color, but what it ended up looking like is that she got water all over the floor. That's okay too!! What fun is it to take a bath and not splash water all over the place?

I hope you like my card. I appreciate your stopping by.

I wish you a most wonderful day!! I am off to spend the day with Holly aka Toy and I plan on having a marvelous day.
