Out of my comfort zone using a sketch today. Jules has lots of sketch templates on her blog which she generously shares with anyone who would like to use one. For my card I used square sketch #2. The image isn't quite square, but I thought it looked okay with the rest of the layout.
A friend of mine loves anything sheep related, so I looked through my printed digi stamps and found this one which I thought would be perfect for her birthday card. The image is a pre-coloured digi stamp from Beccy's Place from the 'Warm and Woolly' set. (For those of you who use digi stamps, Beccy is closing down the digi stamp part of her shop at the end of June, so just a few more weeks to pick up a bargain.) The patterned paper was snippets from a paper pad from The Range, so I'll be sharing my card over in the Playground. I wasn't sure where to put the sentiment, but found a Sizzix stamp the right size to fit in the image rectangle.
I am joining in the following challenge:
I like a sketch every now and again and this one's a doozy - fab sheep make too

That's adorable Liz, what an expression on (his) face. I would be out of my comfort zone with a sketch as well, I aways put it down to not using DP's when I craft.

ReplyDeleteSuch a delightful card! The pre-colored digi stamp from Beccy's Place 'Warm and Woolly' set adds so much charm, and the snippets of patterned paper from The Range create a lovely backdrop. The Sizzix stamp fits perfectly within the layout, tying everything together beautifully.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant card Liz! I never think to follow a sketch and yet they're often so perfect for snippets. I'll be off to Jules' Blog next! I also love that sheep - AND the sheepish grin! Boom, boom!
