Guylou's Sketch Challenge

I think if I had to pick a type of challenge I favor most, hands down - it has to be sketch challenges.  I color, pick out papers, embellies (the easy parts, lol)  and then I get to have someone put all the puzzle pieces together :) 

Guylou's Inimitability is hosting a sketch challenge (yay!!) and one of her DT's, Carmen, has provided an awesome sketch with lots of layers - which I love!  Here is the sketch :
 
And here is my take on the sketch using Guylous' image, Jessica:

Medium:  Artist Loft Watercolor Pencils
Image:  Jessica by Guylou's Inimitability
Sentiment:  TLC
Digi Papers:  Happy Go Lucky by Shabby Princess
Bo Bunny Candy Jewels in Chocolate
Distress ink by Tim Holtz in Vintage Photo

    I like this mix of patterns! Great card. I'm also a huge fan of sketch challenges. There's so many of them out there now and I get a kick out of finding just the right one for the image I want to use.

    Suuuuwwwweeet card Sara! The colors and patterns that you went with are fabulous! And of course I love Jessica...she such a cute image and you have colored her wonderfully! Is the color of the base of the card a sage green? It looks like it (and I adore that color), but sometimes it's hard to tell with pictures and such. Great take on the sketch.

    I think these colors are perfect, and I like the mat you used around the different layers. Wish I'd thought of that! :D
