Retro Sketches #14

Good morning!

A quick share today. I loved the Retro Sketch this week. Perfect CAS sketch.
So I played the challenge.


Here is my take on the sketch.

Supplies:
Cardstock: Stampers Select White from PTI
Stamp Set:  Get your Thong On from There She goes and Sending You Sunshine from The Craft's Meows
Inks: Archival Jet Black Ink
Accessories: Cutterbee scissors and copic markers

Although itis winter for me and I felt kind of funny making summer card, I still like the colours. Well, I did enter the PC Gallery Idol but did not get through the top 20. A bit disappointed but I knew about the competition was stiff. So no bad feelings:) But I decided to play along anyway. There is a Flickr group called Play along Gallery Idol by Keren, where you can link your projects and play along :) Isn't that cool? I am goinng to enter this card into the Play Along Gallery Idol too.

A month ago, my SU snips fell to the floor and the tips got bent. I straightened it but I also ruined the scissors by sharpening using knife sharpner. So I was in search of a new scissors. I had a few people recommend Tim Holtz and Cutterbeee. They both were non stick. I ended up choosing Cutterbee which arrived last week. You can see from this card, I had a good time fuzzy cutting all those flip flops :) Love my new Cutterbee non stick scissors:) 

Anyway, it a holiday for me today(Monday). It is foundation day for Western Australia. But I do have a few chores to do. Got to go now and get them all done so I have rest of the week stress free :)

See you soon!

Ta!

  10. Super fun way to use the sketch Gayatri, the rainbow colours are probably just what you need to cheer up a winters day...... Not that it's exactly flip flop weather here either!!!
