Freshly Made Sketches #372




Linda Callahan has given us this great sketch to work with for challenge #372! Sometimes it takes a while for a design to come together, but this week I immediately saw the thin vertical panel as a tree and couldn't let go of the idea.




A portion of the soft gray panel is masked and inked with Shabby Shutters and Tumbled Glass Distress Inks before the Altenew sentiment is added. The Memory Box Small Alder Tree die is added after the panel was popped up on the card base.




I like to keep a few sympathy cards in my stash as I find them harder to make on demand. I'm hoping this one won't need to be used too soon.

Check out the Clean Team cards for great interpretations of this sketch and join in on the fun!

Thanks for stopping by,

Jacquie

  5. I love this card, the simplicity of the design along with the subtle colours blended beautifully. It is funny how sometimes our best creations just happen and others can take ages to come together xx
