Hello!!
I am thrilled to tell you that the uber talented Jackie Rockwell has offered me a spot on the CAS(E) This Sketch design team! I nearly peed my pants with excitement for many reasons, but mostly because her team is amazing and I adore a fabulous sketch – don’t you?!!! Today is my first sketch to share with you all, so let’s get to it, shall we?
How fun is this sketch? Being the rebel that I am, I totally flipped that baby around and came up with my take on the sketch.
So, I took inspiration from a flower pot design that I saw in the window of Crate and Barrel this summer. I love the color blocked look of the turquoise and green, and then the graphic look of the birds on a wire. I created the design in my Silhouette Cameo – the Birds on a Wire design was altered to just include the three birds (there were several birds in the original design). The sentiment is from one of my favorite Hero Arts sentiment sets.
PRODUCTS USED:
STAMPS: Say It All (Hero Arts)
INK: Black Dye (Memories/Hero Arts)
PAPER: Tempting Turquoise and Kiwi Kiss CS (Stampin’ Up!), Black Licorice CS (French Poptone)
OTHER: Linen Impression Plate (PTI), Birds On A Wire Cutting File (Silhouette Online Store, Design #17150), Silhouette Cameo (Silhouette America)
I’m excited beyond belief to be a part of this fabulous team. Please click on through to the CAS(E) This Sketch Challenge Blog to see what the other ladies on the team came up with for your viewing pleasure and inspiration – you’re going to be blown away! We’d love to see your take on the sketch!
Thanks so much for stopping by today! One of the winners of the Mama Elephant Gift Certificates that I offered in this post never came forward, so please pop in again tomorrow because I’ll be announcing a new winner – maybe it’ll be you!
