Ok onto this hop!!
We have a sketch challenge this month!! 

Here's how I was inspired.....

  

I stamped out the image a few weeks ago from the January KOM from 2020

 and decided to use her today for this sketch...

I colored her with a few Copic Markers 

BG 10-11-13

Y-000 for her eyes and glasses

E 21-37-18 for her hair in strokes, then I went over the entire thing with the Y00

I zoomed in a little..I used a white gel pen to highlight the top

 

        I got out my gold thread from Stampin' Up and tied a bow around her finger where the stamped line is (it looks cute in person)

From the kit In God's Sight, I chose the line of hearts.

 I stamped them on vellum and heat embossed them with gold.

 I fussy cut them out, then I wanted them to hang loosely.

 So I got to thinking, I have this punch that pokes 2 holes. I can thread more of that gold thread through it 

I like how it turned out. I added some gold shimmer hearts here and there.

I decided that she was thinking about her man with her head in the clouds...do you like that?? 

I added a gold cloud in back to tie them together.. 

I chose to use this shiny gold paper because of the tiny gold dots in this amazing paper from Lawn Fawn.

 

For my next card, I chose this sweet little cup. 

I just love the heart steam!! 

 

A tiny bit of coloring went into this card. 

 

If you have any questions, please ask.

 I don't want to get too wordy. 😉 

 

I hope you like my play on this months cue/sketch
