Hey girls! It's Wednesday and time for another Be Inspired challenge. #15 this week was to use a sketch provided by our very special GUEST. Make sure you stop by the Cuttlebug Challenge blog to see who it is find out the prize (well, I'll tell you the prize - PAGEMAPS by Becky Fleck) isn't that awesome? I've also gotten to see sneak peaks of the rest of the teams cards and they are SMOKIN' HOT!!
I really struggled with this sketch - I should've asked Janna for some sketch vibes to help me out. It wasn't until I just HAD TO GET IT DONE that it finally came together. I punched out several circles in variety of papers and then ran them through some of my favorite folders. The butterflys are from the die cut/embossing duo set. I am in total love with them!! I used them as my three focal points and then added some flowers, buttons and pearls.
This sketch is so outside of my comfort zone. It's very edgy, graphic and trendy. I wanted to put a little sweet, soft touch on it and I hope I achieved that! Thanks for stopping by today! I'll have another post later today so don't forget to check back this afternoon! And then tomorrow I have an award to post. I'm so honored to have received it that I didn't want to bury it in my dt work...I wanted it to have a post of its very own!
