#DOswts438 Sketch Inspiration Hop

 


Hello Creators!


Fall or Autumn has finally arrived in North Texas. Woot! I was finished with 100s and 90s by September. We are expecting our first freeze next week. I hope it actually happens. Enough negativity! Let gets some positivity with a new and exciting sketch.




Is this interesting or what? Here is my intepretation:



Here's the recipe:

Night of Navy cardstock - cut 8.5" X 5.5" - scored at 4.25" and 3" X 1.75" and 1.75" X .75"
Designer Series Paper: Cut one at 1.75" X 3.5" and one at 1.75" X 2.5" 
White cardstock: Cut one at 3" X 1.75" and one at 1.75" X .75"
Stamp set: Citrus Blooms
Ink: Tuxedo Black
 
I used Mediterranean Blooms paper and cut an orange for my focal point. The small Night of Navy and White cardstocks were offset layer to the same size pieces.

This is a great sketch as always. My second line (in corporate jargon) or my upline's upline (Stampin' Up! jargon) is no dang creative! I love her sketches!!

Until next time, happy creating!
