I {heart} sketches with a tWist #169


Whew!  Where has this week gone?
It has just flown by for me.
But I'm stopping in tonight with a
quick birthday card for this week's
at From the Heart Stamps.

I took a clean and simple approach
to this week's sketch AND included
the color tWist!! 

My card features the adorable
Birthday Pup digital image.
It was printed onto Stampin' Up!
Whisper White cardstock and colored
with Spectrum Noir and Copic Markers.
The kerchief was paper pieced.

I masked the images and sponged the 
circle background with Memento
Dandelion ink.

Thanks for stopping by for a closer look!
I'm sharing my card with the following:
