Sketch Book 4 - Sketch 3!

Hello wonderful friends! I hope that your Monday was a good start to your week, I am so looking forward to tonight being done with at work, 2 days off before I start a long week and so much to do...

Yesterday, I shared a card I created for the online class that I have been taking with Kelly Purkey called Sketch Book 4, I am having a blast stretching my design and getting out of the comfort zone.

The card that I share with all today, really did just that, took me straight out of that comfort zone and using colours and patterns I would not normally use...



I used lots of pattern paper from the Sketchbook paper pad from Amy Tangerine, adding a sentiment and flower, twine added to the back and with a matching brad from the same collection from Amy Tangerine, layering onto a die cut using one of the techniques shown by Jennifer McGuire in the other online class that I am currently enjoying A Cut Above, all about die cutting with manual and digital machines...if you are interested in viewing all about that class, in which there is still time to join in the fun and sign up, then you can do so HERE.

Well I hope you all enjoy viewing the card and you find a little bit of inspiration..

Hugs for now!
