It’s Tuesday! Time for a sketch!
Howdy-do!
It’s Tuesday, and time for another JBE challenge! This week, it’s my favorite. A sketch!
You can see all the details of the sketch on the JBE Blog HERE.
I am just loving this Basic Grey Lemonade paper! In looking at this week’s sketch, I was pondering what I could use for the three vertical strips. My first thought was ribbon, but as I opened up the pad of patterned papers, I found the sheet that has alternating stripes of the various patterns. *LIGHTBULB* HAHA!!
So, I just trimmed out the three I thought would work nicely with the other patterns I had chosen.
The lovebirds (Wordsworth/Rubber Soul) were stamped on a piece of chipboard also from Basic Grey. I believe this was from the Two Scoops line last year? I adhered that to the cardfront, then punched the holes with my Cropodile. Dressed it up with some May Arts ribbon, and added some red Stickles to the heart above their heads. The pink glittered brads at the top of each strip are Doodlebug’s sugar coated brads. I was too lazy to fire up the sewing machine, so I added a few faux stitches to finish off the design.
Stop on by the other Rockstars’ blogs and see what they’ve done with this week’s sketch!
