This week Bron has come up with the following sketch:
I have a bit of a tendency to take sketches VERY literally (rather than using them as a starting point), and this week is no exception! I've made a card that I think has a distinctly 'folksy' sort of country/naive feel (does that make sense?!).
Stamps: Just Believe, Sweet Stitches stampin' around wheel
Card: Soft Suede, Cherry Cobbler, Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake, Baja Breeze
DSP: Baja Breeze Patterns Designer Series Paper
Ink: Soft Suede, Cherry Cobbler, and Baja Breeze stampin' pads, Crumb Cake stampin' pad and marker
Other: Boho Blossoms punch, Circles #2 die, 1 3/4" circle punch, 2 3/8" Scallop Circle punch, Word Window punch, Modern Label punch, Crimper, Sweet Buttons embosslits, Perfect Polka Dots embossing folder, Square Lattice embossing folder, sponge daubers, Mat Pack and Paper Piercing tool, Kraft corduroy buttons (retired)
Yay welcome to the team - in a slightly more official capacity! You're like part of the furniture already *smile*.

ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome card for your first challenge as a Guest DT. It's great to have you on board, even though you're already so much a part of the JAI family. I looked at this card and had a chuckle because if I had had more time last week to complete the sketch that was in my head, it would have lots of similarities. XX
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your Guest Designer spot Christine!!! Your work is always amazing & inspirational. Love the rustic charm of this card & all that glorious texture. Everytime I try that wheel is looks "blah" but your subtle background looks fabulous! Hugs :)
