I think this is the first time I’ve entered a Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge, but it definitely won’t be the last! The sketch this week was so tempting, I had to try it…

My card is slightly different than what I usually make…it measures 3.5″ x 5.5″ and uses a stamp from Whiff of Joy’s Medieval Collection, “Warrior Battling Charlie”:

I didn’t like the way his shield came out when I first colored it, so I stamped another, colored it and used foam squares to place it on top of the other one. I also used Glossy Accents on his armor, sword and shield.

Instead of putting another element in the place where the branch is on the original sketch, I typed the sentiment and glued it on the contrasting paper strip.

Thanks for stopping by!
