Happy Tuesday everyone! Are you ready to take on another Tuesday Morning Sketch? Well, you're in for a treat! This week, our fantastic sketch is brought to you by my teammate, Debbie! Check it out...

  

  

This week is also a JUDGED challenge, which means you not only have to use the sketch on your entry, but you also have to include the twist! This time it's all about BIRTHDAYS! We want to see you take this sketch and create a birthday card! The Design Team will be choosing our favorite card this week to win a prize from our sponsor, the Digi Doodle Shop!

 

Digi Doodle Shop was generous enough to offer each of the Design Team members an image to work with! (How awesome is that!!) I chose this adorable Teddy Bear image for my card. As soon as I saw him, I thought of the Snuggle Fabric Softener Bear! So, I tried to color my bear to match. There are so many tiny details in the flowers, that it turned out to be very time-consuming to color...  but worth it right? He turned out pretty cute!

  

  

Bear - E53, E30, E50

Ears - R01, R00, R000

Flower Centers - Y17, Y15, Y13, Y11

Grass, Leaves - YG17, YG13, YG11

Fur "Texture" - 0 (Colorless Blender)

  

After coloring the bear, I dripped some Copic Colorless Blender solution onto a terry cloth rag, and dabbed it on to create the texture of fur... it's really hard to see on the light colors I used, but here is a close up anyway...

  

 

So what do you think? Does he remind you of the Snuggle Bear???

  

Now be sure to check out the awesome line up the Design Team has created for you at the Tuesday Morning Sketches Blog. We also have a special Guest Designer joining us this week - Shelby Thomas. (Holy cow, can she color! Be sure to pay her a visit too!)

  

That's all for today! Thanks for stopping by!
