That's right! This is the first sketch that I've created and shared and OWH Stars & Stamps is using it! Yay!
If you're coming from there, thanks for checking out my blog.
They didn't put it in their post, but of this week's participants I will be picking someone randomly for some blog candy!
So here's my card:
My intention of this card was to have the sentiment be vertical in the middle stripe. I love the colors on this card, but am not happy with the sentiment, so don't be surprised if I participate in this sketch again. I also put some squared scraps of the pattern inside as you can see in the 2nd picture.



Thanks for providing this week's sketch! I will admit that this will be a difficult challenge for me. I have a hard time combining lots of patterns so I'm looking forward to seeing just how far out of my box I can step! lol
ReplyDeleteErika, This was a challenging challenge! I, like Wendy above, have such a hard time with combining patterns/colors. I looked at yours and knew instantly that you skillfully put different patterns together. I thought about color, but then the patterns were not right. I think I somewhat cheated by each strip not being different, but I have added knowledge to some of my brain cells, so it is good. Thanks so much and blessings, Louise
ReplyDeleteThis is a great sketch for many different themes of cards! Thanks, Erika!
ReplyDeleteThis is a terrific sketch, Erika! You arranged those patterns perfectly. I like that you put some of the color inside the card too. Well done!
ReplyDeleteThis was a unique and fun sketch to do! You've really created a great card with combining all those designer papers, and I love the sentiment panel too! Nice job!
ReplyDeletethank for the great sketch. what a great way to use up small left over paper!
ReplyDeletecute card
ReplyDeleteThe colors are great.. I "cheated" a bit and put mine horizontally but I love how you used the "mismatch" letters to create the vertical sentiment
ReplyDeleteThis started out looking simple, but, picking various colors or patterns WAS the challenge. Thanks for the sketch, I will definitely try this more than once! (hiscreation2)
