This week at the Merry Monday Challenge we have a sketch...at first I was a little intimidated, but once I started thinking about it, and planning it in my head I feel pretty good about it. Here I am again using pattern paper from my stash. I won this challenge a couple of weeks ago when we were asked to use a snowman on our card. To have my card selected as the winner was a total shock to me and very humbling. But I love making cards and love trying new techniques and challenges are always a good way to go outside my comfort zone.
Here is the sketch for this week, I turned it on its side and used twine in place of stripe. If you want to play, go HERE to access the site.paper: PTI white, pure poppy and ripe avocado and ripe avocado pattern paper; Authentique pattern pack
dies: PTI Headline Alphabet, Holly Jolly
Stamps: Holiday Spirit Sentiments
misc: May Arts twine, versamark, white filigree embossing powder
