Yippee! I'm guest designing for The Shabby Tea Room this week!! I won the opportunity by making a tag during the "Terrific Tags" Challenge in December! This week's Shabby Tea Room challenge is a sketch challenge. See image below.
Oh my gosh, I had the most boring card made to submit to Debbie and I said "Wait a minute, I can't submit this!" :) What can I do to fix it? (It was all laid out but not glued down). Thinking about the "new to me" card styles I've been seeing in blogland, I took another approach to the sketch. A Freestyle Collage/Clean and layered approach. Or at least my interpretation of it! :) I have all the basic shapes or elements of the sketch, I just moved them around a bit, creative license, right? Of course my sewing machine decided not to work this morning, making big knots on the back of the paper and locking up. ugh,
I'm very happy with it. Much more modern and interesting with some vellum throw in to make it trendy!
Shabby Tea Room this week and play along!
