We have another great sketch challenge this week at Global Design Project. You have to know that it would be completely out of character for me to follow a sketch exactly, but this week I came a little closer than normal. I did, however change it up from a horizontal layout to a vertical one. It was the only way I could get the flowers to fit on the card and stay balanced.
One of my favorite suites in the new 2018 Catalog is the Country Lane Suite (pages 42-43). I love everything about it. I decided to incorporate several products from this suite into this challenge card.
I used Stampin' Blends to color the images. I am a little rusty when it comes to coloring cylinders with reflective surfaces. I probably could have done a better job on the milk can, but overall, I am pleased with how it turned out. (Stampin' Blends used: milk can and cotton-Smoky Slate #145058; leaves-Shaded Spruce #147938; berries-Cajun Craze #1147931; seed pods-Soft Suede #147273 and Daffodil Delight #144603.)
The trickiest thing about this card is the cut out around the floral images. I used a pencil to determine where I wanted to cut before I actually did the trimming.
We would love to have you play along with us this week. Be sure to check out what the other talented designers/players have created for this fun challenge at the Global Design Project Challenge Blog.
