Hi Gang! I'm up once again with a new SKETCH CHALLENGE for TCP TUESDAY #185 with THE CAT'S PAJAMAS.
So...remember that the sketch is meant to inspire and spark your creative juices flowing. And most of the time I really do try and take the sketch very literally. I'm weird like that cuz I know so many people who can really "see" the sketch in so many different ways than I had originally in my head. Well, that kinda happened to me this time! I not only turned the sketch onto it's side but I then switched the main element from the right to the left and then I didn't use the horizontal (in my case vertical) piece at all. That can happen, stampers...just go with it, I guess!
I used purty patterned papers in the Sidewalks pad from October Afternoon along with one of my fave TCP images - bunny in the cute little putt putt plane from the TAKEOFF set. I also used the CLOUD BORDER CUTUPS DIE where the filmstrip element is in the sketch. A little banner mimicing the background paper and a notched sentiment finish it off.
Join us this week, won't ya? Add your card to ALMA'S BLOG so that you'll be included in the weekly/monthly contest and use keyword TCPTUES185 when you upload to Splitcoast. Oh, and guess what....big surprises coming next week so you really should check back in with the DT....hmmm...what could it be?!!
Wow, I love everything about this beautiful card! Fun and whimsical!
