MFTWSC56


please click images to enlarge

hi again! there's another awesome MFT sketch up for the week- find all the details here!
the sewing machine is hard to get to with all the purging & packing going on around here lately- thank goodness for white gel pens- made faux stitching fun & easy!

here's a peek at the inside:



i popped up lots of layers on this one using Jody's fab boosters: the background panel, the doily & flag sentiment, and cutie PI spa girlie:



here's a close up of the main image too- after coloring with copics, i added a thin layer of liquid pearls over top of her robe pocket, robe edges, belt and slippers to make them shimmery like satin- it's a little blown out in the photo, but i really wanted the effect to show:




it's so nice to have another valentine made- MFT sketches make it so easy & fun!
thanks for looking!
