This week's Etsy Inspired Challenge (EIC101) store is Lover Dovers Homemade Goodness which is filled with retro aprons and children's dresses. I chose this wonderful Retro 50's Black and Pink Betsy Floral with Polka Dot Full Apron to inspire me card. I loved those vibrant pink and white polka dots.
This week's challenge is sponsored by Sassy Studios Designs, which has a wonderful collection of digital images. I chose to work with their I'm Every Woman, The Whole World's in Our Hands.
I started by doing some digital paper piecing with clipping masks for the shirt, hair. lips and globe using digital papers from Vera Lim. I sized the pink polka dot paper down for my shirt, and then enlarged it and printed it a second time for the accent in my card design.
When those were complete, I printed the image and colored her pants and jewelry with Prismacolor Pencils. The sketch is this week's 2 Sketches 4 You.
This week's prizes include the fabulous I Love Lucy Retro Apron from Lover Dovers & four digital images of your choosing from Sassy Studio Designs.
