Happy Friday!! I know I've been very quiet lately...I'm just trying to finish up all of the projects that I've been working on. That...and my two year old is...well, acting two! LOL! He is becoming quite the "Outdoorsman"! Just when I think he is actually napping...I see him running around outside! He knows how to open the window, pop the screen out, & crawl outside!!! So..naptime is spent checking on him every few minutes! :-) Mostly, I think he has a bad case of cabin fever!! It is snowing again today, and we are all just tired of the cold weather!
Friday also means it's time for Beate's Weekend Sketch Challenge! I stamped this super cute monkey (C.C. Designs...available at All That Scraps) onto watercolor paper with Palette ink. I then used my Prismacolor pencils and Gamsol to color the monkey in. The rest is just embellishments! :-)
I wanted to add some leaves, so I cut out some leaf shapes from Old Olive c.s. and glued them onto the branch.
Make sure you see what Beate, Cambria, Charmaine, Jenn, Lori, Mary Jo, & Sharon have created for this sketch! :-)
Thanks so much for stopping by! ~Laurie
