Freshly Made Sketches #374





Clean Team member Jennifer Brun has given us such a fun sketch this week! I went from thoughts of butterflies to balloons to confetti before finally deciding to give a bokeh technique a try.




I love how this panel turned out! The bokeh circles were added after making a circle stencil out of a piece of transparency and swiping the ink on with a piece of paper towel. I found this worked best to control the amount of white that was added. The smallest dots are stamps from Avery Elle Bunting.




A few sequins add to the party feel and circle motif.

I'm looking forward to seeing a fun gallery this week!

Thanks for stopping by,

Jacquie

    Love this :)
    What die did you use to cut out the long rectangle?

    Lovely colors used on your die cut panel with the Bokeh - so clever to loop the Y through the sentiment strip!
