Copics with Balsa Wood
Hello everyone!! I have a CCEE Stampers card to share with you today. Frances has challenged us to make a card with a sports theme since baseball was invented on June 12, 1839. The card can represent any sport, so I chose surfing.
First off, I was inspired by this week's Mojo Monday Sketch #194. I stamped the surf board images, from the Verve set Relax, with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink onto Balsa Wood and colored them with my Copics. I found they actually blended pretty well too.
The palm trees were also colored with Copics and cut out, and the sun sentiment medallion was sponged with Wild Honey. The dp is Sunshine Broadcast by Sassafras.
That's it from me today. Now be sure to check out what sports the other gals are representing over at the CCEE Stampers Blog.
Happy Stamping!!
Tosh

Awesome idea with the balsa wood! What a great card--it all comes together so perfectly.
Have a super day.
FABULOUS Tosh!!~
Great use of the mojo sketch! Love the scene you have created. Hope it is a hand delivery because balsa wood and mail don't go well together LOL!
Spectacular surfer card, Tosh! My nephew LOVES to surf, and he would LOVE your cool card! Cool idea to color on the balsam wood.
