Good morning! It's a new challenge for you from Inkspirations! This week, it's a sketch challenge and it's being hosted by Cindy this week so you'll have to visit her blog to link up your creation! She's also added a TWIST this week! Fun, fun :) The twist is to go through your carefully hoarded embellishment stash and use up something that you've never used yet. We've all got something like that, right? I've had these mini clothespins forever and have never used them once. I must have had some bright idea but I never got around to doing it ... LOL!

Anyway, I used a new stamp that will be in the upcoming catalogue (we demo's got to preorder this month). This is actually a wheel called "Baby Tee's". I planned on taking it apart when I ordered it because I'd probably never use it as a wheel but I LOVED the baby t-shirt. So, as soon as I got it, I peeled the rubber off of the wheel and put the rubber on some EZ Mount foam and then cut them out individually. There were tons of little dots on it and in rather awkward spots to take off but my hubby had the bright idea of slicing them off of the rubber with a craft knife rather than trying to cut them out!

So, they were stamped on the background piece (the Banana cs) with Whisper White ink and then embossed with the white embossing powder. Then, I stamped the dots with Apricot Appeal. The baby shirts were coloured in with a versa marker just to get them to show up a little darker. I combined the sketch challenge with a challenge from Embellish (these colours along with a baby theme).

Now, you've got to check out what the rest of the Inkspirations team has made with Keesh's sketch and then you've gotta link up your own fantabulous creation! I can't wait to see what everyone makes :)

Hope you like my card! Thanks for visiting!!

Hi again Renee, thanks very much for your reply to my earlier comment. If you ever visit Australia, you'll have lots of friends to welcome you. If you have the opportunity, please say hello to Makeesha from me this weekend and tell her thanks for posting about her trip; making me very envious. Her kids are very lucky duckies. Kind regards, KimT in Sydney Australia.
