Here is the sketch:
Here is my take:
I colored up Kraftin' Kimmie's Little Orphan Annie.
I used Copic markers to color her up using the following colors:
Skin-E000,00,21
Hair-Y21,YR12,14,E15,18
Dress-R05,C5
The paper comes from a 6x6 pad called
Berry Blast by Hampton Art. The sentiment accompanies the stamp. It reads: The sun'll come out, tomorrow.
I used an embossing folder to jive up the square.

And...there is my stubborn take on this weeks sketch!
Have an awesome Sunday and stay cool, my friends!
Very cute. I love the embossing folder you used.
ReplyDeleteThank you Susan. The embossing folder is one of those cheaper ones from AC Moore. I think it was like 3bucks. The name brand is Darice.
DeleteWhat a cool card for a hot day. Great job!
ReplyDeleteThank you Christy! :)
DeleteI adore Annie- and of course the way you colored her and love that she is big and bold and extending off the panel--you just cannot contain Annie! You did a fabulous job- love the embossing on one of the squares! And don't feel bad- the measurements are a tiny bit off; the top and bottom strips should have been 5 inches not 4..but no matter what- you did a great job! I love the tans/browns with the red of her dress! Your cards always make we want to buy the stamp you used! My niece was Ms Henningan in her school play and I know she would love a card just like this! I am guessing a fight may break out over this card by some of our troops! It is one of my all time favorites!
ReplyDeleteOh Diane thank you! I thought the top/bottom should have been 5! I even tripled checked to make sure I was using an A2 card! Ha! Then I thought my ruler was broke! :) anyways, your comments are very kind and I always liked Annie but I like the sentiment even more!
DeleteWhat a positive card and such a good one for someone to send as an encouraging thought. I love the colors you used that Annie is colored so well!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Erika!
DeleteWhat a great card and interpretation of today's sketch! Nice color contrast to support Annie as the focal point.
ReplyDeleteThank you Susan! :)
DeleteI like how you used today's sketch! The girl is so adorable and I just love the idea of an embossed panel. Very cute card!
ReplyDeleteThank you Lee Mae! I did struggle with this sketch! :)
ReplyDeleteYour card is straight out of Broadway - I love it! Great coloring! I couldn't make sense of the measurements either, so I cut pieces down and made the sketch work my way :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Carol!
DeleteI saw in the comment above something about not being able to contain Annie, and that is what I thought when I first saw your card. There is no keeping her in a little box with perfect measurements. Great adaptation of the sketch, and that is what those sketches are all about, inspiration, so it looks like you were inspired. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you,Melissa! Annie can not be contained!
DeleteAwesome coloring as usual! I particularly love your color palette and embossing! tfs!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Linda!
DeleteWhat a cute Annie!! You got me singing, there. :) I love your take on the sketch. Sometimes these challenging sketches can turn out so cool... Just because everybody does their own "take" on them. I love yours!!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Nancy! I like viewing everyone else's interpretation of the sketches, too!
DeleteGood take on the sketch! Your Annie so cute.
ReplyDeleteThanks Barbara! :)
DeleteBeautiful card, love Annie!
ReplyDeleteThank you, JoAnn! :)
