SFYTT - Big Splash


I usually manage to miss out on Jen's Sketch For You To Try (SFYTT) revealed every Sat - but not this time, because my buddy and fellow Prettie girl Jessie -Can You Say???Addicted(to stamps)!!!! is her guest designer for her sketches this month!

So I had to play this weekend and was missing my Fishy Friends so I brought them out to play. My inspiration was the dp I chose & realized I didn't have any appropriate sayings until I thought about Melanie's Jumping for Joy set which says "hope you make a big splash" so I inked up just the portion I needed. I love the variety she has in her sets!

Stamps: Fishy Friends, Jumping for Joy (Gina K Designs)
Paper: Cutie pie dp, So Saffron, Rose Red, Certainly Celery, Watercolor
Ink: Certainly Celery, Bashful Blue, So Saffron, Rose Red
Accessories: faux dew drops, Sakura stardust pen
Pin It
