Hi there!
I really enjoy drawing “stacks” but haven’t drawn any for quite a while. So I used an image by Julia Glockner on Pinterest for inspiration.
The choice of sentiment made me chuckle. Otherwise, I was thinking of adding “Be BOULDER” just to amuse myself (hence the title of this blog post) - but that would have meant writing the words on the card by hand, as a last step . . . and I didn't want to ruin it! We never think our own hand writing is good enough do we? That’s why we use stamps!

| 5" x 5" card |
Details:
- 5” square base card.
- Pencil to sketch with. Sakura Pigma Micron pen 01 to go over the pencil sketch.
- Various Distress Inks and a water brush to colour the drawing.
- White Gelly Roll 08 pen for dotty highlights.
- Uniko sentiment from Simply Said Blocks.
Here’s Julia’s original picture:

You're not wrong about how we perceive our own handwriting but ... "be boulder" WOULD have been fun!! That said, your card is simply super

Great CAS card and I love your stack of rocks-brilliantly drawn and the sentiment is perfect-my handwriting is definitely not suitable for writing on cards!

I love your interpretation Sarn, it's a brilliant CAS make, all the better for being hand drawn...and I agree with Kathyk about the sentiment.

I do love stacks and I'm reminded that, much as I love them, I've not drawn any for ages. Perhaps a quiet occupation for a hot and sticky afternoon when crafting is proving to be a bit of a trial 🙄. Thanks for sharing your inspiration as well.
ReplyDeletePS - forgot to say your heading is fab - CLEVER too
