Free Hugs

I {heart} Sketches with a tWist #163 has a fun sketch to work, an optional twist of "Child's Play"., and an option of the colors gold, blue green, purple, and red. I selected the image Free Hugs and think I used all the options although I ran out of room for the bow. The image (cut with Gina Marie Dies) and banner are popped up with foam for some added dimension. The sentiment comes with the set.

I spent the morning making some foil covered, embossed, and painted background pieces. This one was painted with Tim Holtz Distress Paints in Vintage Photo. Below you can see the rest of the products I used.

Copics, Paper Smooches, Distress Inks

Last touch was to add a few enamel dots and hearts.

Free Hugs

From the Heart, i {heart} card sketches w/ a tWiSt #154 offered a sketch and an optional twist to show off our coloring skills. I really liked the sketch since it offered a bit more space for a larger image to color. However, larger images make coloring imperfections bigger too LOL!

This image is called Free Hugs and comes with this sentiment and several others as well. I thought I could make an easel card and still follow the sketch. You can see it better when it is closed.
