Today I am back with some exciting news – I am a new member of the Sketch Saturday Design Team!
I was previously a Guest Designer on another challenge site, but this is my first official post on a regular team. I hope to inspire & encourage you to follow along on the Sketch Saturday blog and link the cards you make.
Let’s get started!
Sketch #754
So this week we were to pick a sketch from the 2019 Archives of the Sketch Saturday blog. There were so many great ones to choose from but I finally decided on #586.
Here is the sketch:
I choose this one because of the ovals. I knew I could use the Creative Memories cutting system as there are three blade sizes & it makes it easy to mat the shapes. I have had the original system with the ovals & circles for YEARS and still find them useful.
My Interpretation:
I did add the presents inside the ovals but that was the only change I made to the original sketch. I started with the three green patterned papers and then found the plaid blue & green strip.
The colors in the stickers (presents & envelope) made it all come together and added the pop of red, so I went with red for the enamel dots in the upper right corner, too.
Overall, I am really happy with the way it turned out & I hope it helps spark an idea for you as well. Be sure to check out the Sketch Saturday blog to see all the Design Team inspiration & link up your own creation.
