Peachy Keen - Sketch Challenge 44 w/a Twist

I loved the Sketch Challenge over at Peachy Keen, I did it twice!!! Well, not really. I did it once, forgot it was monochromatic and did it again! 

 Here is the sketch:

 Love my glitter pearl chalks that work together with the Peachy Keen Stamps to make faces adorable.

I am into using my Sizzix for embossing then going over the pattern with 3D paint. It gives it a really good texture and interesting depths. 

Such a cute birthday card, I think I'll save it for my own birthday! LOL (since I seem to buy my own presents anyway!) 

Here is my first attempt at the sketch before my screech rocked the house, "OOOOOHHHH NOOOOOO - MONNNNO CHROMAAAAATTTTIIIICCCCCC!!!! GAH!"

Hmmmm, I wonder if they'll accept Red, Green and Brown as a new age shade of Blue? ...

Anyway, This card is for the gardener at the school my son just began attending as a Kindy. He is vision impaired and the gardener sat in 37oC heat to paint the entire school with warning strips and visual cues for him. Bless her! It looks great and has already made a difference to him.

Thanks to Peachy Keen for another awesome challenge! Wishing everyone a happy day!
