This week the Global Design Team has a really fun Sketch Challenge. I loved the sketch but I really was having a hard time deciding what to do. So this time I tried something different. Instead of looking towards my favorite sets, I decided to pull out those less used to see what I could come up with.
For starter's lets take a look at the awesome sketch for the challenge:
I loved the simplicity of the sketch and knew right away that I wanted to stamp on my panels as opposed to using some DSP. So what did I come up with? Drum roll......
For starter's this colour selection I choose is one of my new favs! - Melon Mambo, Coastal Cabana & Mango Melody. I just love how they pop off each other.
I started with a simple white card base and cut my panels of cardstock. I then took my barely used stamp set - Tabs for Everything. I choose to use the hearts, elephants and crowns. I adhered my cardstock panels with Stampin' Dimentionals.
Once adhered, I attached some of the Rose Metallic thread, and mounted some of the wood element pieces. I then added my small scalloped circle (Stamped in Melon Mambo), together with my Welcome sentiment.
To complete the card, I of course spritzed it with some Wink of Stella to make it shine!!
While I did stick somewhat close to the sketch I did change the position of the main cluster and sentiment. I also added the thread instead of the tied bow in the sketch.
See that's what is great with working on a sketch, you can edit to put your own personal spin on your final project. Sketch's can really get you working out of your comfort zone.
I had so much fun playing along this week and can't wait to see what's in store for next week!
Thanks for stopping by and have fun stamping.
