Sketch #33

I've got a card version and an 8.5x11 version of the sketch this week, and a card for my sample. Enjoy! Oh, and in the comments, Amy J asked last week where I get my sketches, so I thought I'd answer here... I make them myself! I get inspiration from magazines (ads) and art and sometimes take bits and pieces from cards/layouts I see. Sometimes the sketch develops from the pictures I'm trying to make into a layout.






















card recipe (all SU!): cardstock (Kraft, Very Vanilla, Kiwi Kiss), inks (Baja Breeze, Kiwi Kiss, Chocolate Chip), Stamps (Organic Life - hostess set, Pocket Silhouettes, Bella Toile background, Define Your life - hard to see... stamped off and stamped over sponged background), tools (Scallop Square punch for mask, sponge, Word Window Punch, Top Note die-cut--thanks Anne!), paper (Kraft DSP - hostess)


Thanks for stopping by... link me up if you make something inspired by a sketch!

I just joined Demo Bloggers Group 5 and thought I would stop by and say hi! I'll definately have to check out all your scrapbook layouts and see if I can start scrapbooking again sometime soon!

You did a great job with that sketch! I wish they still had that background stamp - it adds a great touch!
