Sketch Challenge - Crafty Collaborations June 2021 Challenge

The Crafty Collaborations Team is comprised of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world. Each month we participate in several collaborative projects, including Blog Hops, like this one to inspire all of us in our passion for crafting. Our Goal is to create, share, and inspire every crafter to keep our creative energy flowing. 

Today's feature involves a Sketch Challenge. The sketch is interpreted according to the creator. 

I had some cut up pieces of the Expressions in Ink Designer Series Paper that started my inspiration. I decided I would stay with the suite and use the Artistically Inked Bundle. I paired it with the new in colors Polished Pink and Pale Papaya. Lastly, I used one of the messages from my stash inked and cut with the Many Messages bundle. It's so handy to have these die cut and ready to add to any card! This set and die cut is in the new catalog, but the bundle price offered in the January to June catalog expires TODAY!    

 

As you can see, I decided to make my card vertical instead of horizontal. I made my squares larger than the sketch has in the layout, which also meant my die cut elements were placed slightly different than the sketch. I find sketch inspirations to be an easy way to get inspired to create cards. With the layout decided, half the hard work is done!
