Paper Smooches SPARKS: May Designer Drafts challenge

Hello, friends:}

Today we start another weekly challenge over at Paper Smooches SPARKS blog!! This week we are sharing a DESIGNER DRAFT challenge. 

This week we are inspired by the following sketch:

**Sentiments can be placed anywhere on the sketch.

Ok.... so.... I went a bit abstract for this sketch.... that's typical for me:) Here's how I followed the sketch: 

• I used the tan background as my cardbase.
• The green piece was created using "watercolors".
• The orange strip became a sentiment.
• The half circle was made into another sentiment and die cut.
  

I looooooove that watercoloring- I used Tsukineko Radiant Neon Electric Orange and Coral inks for this design!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE! I also love the washed out edges... that was made by spraying Ink Potion No. 9 on my watercolor design. This is probably my fav watercoloring ever! 

I cut up a sentiment from the Paper Smooches Happy Birthday set and stamped another one from the Chit Chat set. Then I die cut the Smooches Birthday Words sentiment using Chickaniddy Crafts Silver Surfer foil paper! LOOOOOOVE! 

That's it for me today--but be sure to stop by the other Paper Smooches SPARKS DT members' blogs, get inspired, and leave them some love. ***This is actually the last PSS challenge for these gals.
