Sunday Sketch

Operation Write Home's Sunday Sketch Challenge #177 looks like this:
Here is my take:
I used a Kraftin' Kimmie rubber stamp called Aphrodite. I used Copic markers to color this lovely image.
Skin-E000,00,21
Hair-E21,25,27
Crown-Y35,38,E18
Dress-BG72,75,78

The sentiment reads: Do all things with love

 I added three little sparkly hearts to accent and coordinate with the sketch.
Kraftin' Kimmie has a Krafty Guest Contest right now. So, I am going to enter this creation as well.

On a sad note, I had to say good-bye to a beautiful person in my life these past few days. My husband's grandmother, Ruth...a.k.a Grammy passed. She was 94 years old!!! Grammy's heart was made of pure gold. Not only was she a model of the perfect homemaker and wife but she also took care of my daughter, Riley when she was little! I took this picture this past Christmas and you can just see the love and admiration they shared with each other. Grammy will definitely be missed, but she will forever more live in our memories.

Have a great Sunday, my friends!
