There She Goes - TSG55

** Thanks for scrolling down to see my post today for the Little Paper Shop.

Hello and happy Monday. This week’s challenge for There She Goes is brought to us by our Trendsetter of the Week, Jessica! She is challenging us to create a card using line art as your background. This is a fun technique to use when you might not feel like coloring or are short on time. Larger line art type images (like the café from Daily Grind) work great! Simply stamp your image in a light colored ink for the background. You can then use dimensionals to add smaller images (that have been colored and cut out) on top of the background image. You can see Jessica’s amazing sample HERE. Here is what I came up with using the What’s Up Buttercup? set. The patterned paper is by Prima and you can find it here at the Jacksonbelle Embellishments store. I have also used Friday’s Sketch AMYRTFS8 from Amy Rysavy’s blog (which I have flipped on its side). Tammy Fielder drew this sketch for Amy.

What do you think? It was so hard for me to not color in the flowers on the white panel. LOL.

To be eligible for the giveaway, you are to create a card that utilizes line art as a background, then go to the TSG Blog to add your name and a link to your project in the Mr. Linky that is located at the bottom of the challenge post. This challenge is open until the winner has been announced on the following Monday (May 24th). The winner will get a $5 gift certificate to use in the TSG Web store!

By participating in this challenge, you may also find yourself in the Trendsetting Spotlight that shines on the TSG Blog every Thursday. We will be on the look out to find challenge cards that stand out and show Trendsetting qualities. TSG stamps are not required to participate in the challenges but are appreciated :)

You do not need to have a blog to be able to participate in the TSG Challenges! You can simply add the URL link from your project after it has been uploaded to your online craft gallery. If you upload your card to an online craft gallery, please use the keyword TSG55 so we can check out your beautiful work!

Thanks for stopping by and I’ll see you back here tomorrow for a couple more challenge posts.

Hugs,

Pam
