Life is the Ticket...


Today I wanted to share a card I made using October's Card Sketch on the Club Scrap forum.  Of course you know me...sometimes I like to go against the grain a bit and add my own little twist which is just what I did for the sketch (following the card).  


As you can see I took a bit of creative license by sliding the smaller flag to the other side and tucking them beneath the larger pennant.  Well actually, I added 2 instead of just one.

All of the materials used - papers, stamps, fiber & embellishments are from October's Big Top kit.  Don't ya just love those bright beautiful colors? A REALLY fun kit!  The inks are all IMAGINE Crafts featuring Tsukineko.

So have you tried a sketch challenge lately?  If not you should really give it a try - they really help stretch your creative imagination.  I'm making it my goal to try at least one challenge per week - I'm not there yet but I hope to really get serious about it in the coming year.  What are your favorite challenge blogs?

Have a wonderful weekend friends!

  1. Great interpretation of the sketch, Roni. Love the "tickets" in place of the smaller banner. TFS!

  2. I love this. The colours are perfect. I would give it to one of my students in grade three when they need a little pick me up!
