Wednesday means
only one thing, a new sketch over at the Outlawz and my card today features the
lovely Iris image from this month’s fabby sponsor, Oak Pond Creations.
And here’s this week’s
sketch.
I’ve fallen out of
the habit of playing along at Through the Purple Haze so before I sat down to
make my card I headed over there to check out their current challenge. It is to use an inspirational image, quite a
different image it is too! Between the feathers
and the colours I kept thinking shabby chic, a style that really suited this
sketch too. I picked up the purples,
pinks and blues from the inspiration image in my papers and embellies and the
slight green tinges in my scrap of ribbon.
The sketch was a
great one for layering up my papers and I do love to use various patterned
papers on my cards, love the extra weight and thickness they give to the
card. I’ve got three on this one so I’m
also entering my card in the current challenge over at Craft Your Passion.
Corrosive Challenges are running a theme of “B” Unique looking for three things starting
with the letter ‘b’; I’ve got some lovely blooms (both embellies and the
image), some sparkly bling and a beautiful butterfly. So I’m entering my card in the challenge.
This really is an
awesome sketch to let your creativity shine through and I loved
playing with it. So hope you will come
join us over at the Outlawz with your take on the sketch.
