Vrooooom! Isn't this little scooter sweet? It's part of the On the Grow stamp set, available in the Stampin' Up! Summer Mini Catalog on May 1. I'll be offering more sneak peeks from the Summer Mini this week. Stay tuned if you have an "inquiring" mind!
It's also time for a new Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge (MOJO186).
STAMPIN' PRETTY TIPS:
-
Since watercoloring isn't my strong suit, I prefer to go the easy route. I used Stampin' Up! Watercolor Wonder Crayons to add just a touch of color to the image and blended with a Blender Pen. - Keep accents simple. I added one Circle Ice Rhinestone Brad for a snippet of bling in the corner.
- Adhesive on the back of my Designer Series Paper keeps the Linen Thread in place.

I think your watercoloring turned out just right.
Very lovely card! I like the hint of using adhesive on the back of the DSP to hold the linen thread in place. Great idea!

I’ve never seen a cuter scooter! Fabulous sketch!
What a cute little scooter. I think your watercolor is just fine. Love the piercing and touch of bling. I am so glad to see this “on” a card to see the actual size. TFS – Hugs.
Good morning, Mary: What a super cute card!! All of this sneak peeks from the Summer Mini Catalog are making me so eager to get it, I can’t wait!!!!! Love the effect that the blender pens give to any card using chalk or water colors, I’m so glad I ordered mine.
