August Sketch Challenge hosted by Flourishes Stamps!

Here's my entry. I made my own spray with gold Pearl Ex and hairspray on the Nesties fleur de lise pendant shapes; it sparkles in real life. I also used glue dots to attach gold glitter to the brad for a little more bling.

Beautiful work Evelyn! I've never tried using paint markers on transparencies or the Glitz Spritz. Glad you let us know your techniques!

I'm also in awe of your great work on your photostream. I see that you also like Holly Berry House medallions. I posted one of the butterflies for this challenge, & I have many more pictured in my gallery. I'm also working on some Outlines ones right now. The Glitz Spritz & the polished stone technique may be the added extras I need to really make the medallions stand out. Thanks for the info!

Great work Karen! Those Nesties fleur de lis shapes really set it off. All of your elements really work together.

I'm so glad that so many people have already played this month especially since we have so much time left yet. There have been so many great examples with what I thought was a very simple sketch.

I love your card Karen. How did you mix the pearl ex with the hair spray? I'd like to try that.

Very pretty card, Karen.

Thanks for the nice comments! I really need to learn how to take better pictures. . .it's got more depth and glimmer than scanning makes possible.

I'll post in Tips and Techniques how to make your own 'glimmer' or 'glitter' mist with mica powders.
