My Creative Sketches

I've used some various techniques that I've been learning lately, I first painted with gesso then used texture paste with a Scrap FX cloud template, Jo Sonja's and Kaisercraft Paint, some micro beads to mimic the scene in the photo and some dimensional magic to adhere the beads.  I also sprayed the clouds with Tattered Angels Glimmermist after painting them.
The border is Kindyglitz and the hearts and second title have been embossed before using Tim Holtz Distress Ink to colour.  I've also distressed some of the background paper and inked with Tim Holtz.
The patterned paper is also from Kaisercraft Miss Matched range.  The pearl flourish is from Zva Creations and the crotchet flowers are Couture Creations and I think the little fish button is from Eye candy Magic.  The ribbon has been gathered before gluing and its from my stash.  Nearly forgot I used a die for the doily in the background of the photo.

The fabulous sketch is from http://mycreativesketches.blogspot.com.au/
I was drawn to this challenge because of the opportunity to win a fabulous prize of so many different products that I've not seen or used before.
