Let' s get inky!

 Time for a new sketch from Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge! 



No need to overthink a sketch! 


I've created my own patterned paper with stencils and ink!!  Super quick, super easy & super fun!!!

Brick Wall stencil (Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps) is inked using Mellow Mustard ink (Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps).  Geo 1 stencil (Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps) is inked using Ruby Red ink (Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps).  I then used a piece of ephemera from Echo Park - Santa Claus Lane.  

We can't wait to see what you create using this fun sketch!
