Hey everyone! Ronda here with your May sketch.
This
fun sketch can be used for a layout or cards. Start off with
scattering scraps or tiny shapes in the background and then stitch some
lines both vertically and
horizontally. Frame your photo, object, or saying on a piece of
patterned paper to ground it. Add the title to the bottom right of the
photo and then journal around the outer edged of the page.
Supplies: Find Your Wings and Fly-Sky’s the Limit :Layered Ephemera Paper; Find Your Wings and Fly-Up & Away: Be Awesome Paper, Krafty Floral Paper, Admit One Paper, Mixed Media Paper, Quatrefoil Paper, Sticker Accessories, Enamel Dots, Alpha/Word Stickers; Misc: black pen, vintage thread, American Crafts Thickers, Maya Road Spray ink, Liquitex Gel Medium
I
was so anxious to play with the new lines of Find Your Wings and Fly
that I had to use bits & pieces on my background. I started off
with cutting out the tickets
found on the Admit One paper. I placed them on the nice neutral
background from the Sky’s the Limit Layered Ephemera Paper. I love how
compatible these lines are to use.
After placing the papers around the page, I added stickers to fill in the gaps. I then stitched three vertical lines and 2 horizontal lines. I then sprinkled some spray ink over the papers and the background.
I added some matte medium onto the page and placed my vintage thread on top of the patterned paper. I love leaving it loopy.
You can stitch through the stickers too! I added the enamel dots to complete the page and to add pops of color. Lastly I journaled around the edge of the page, telling my story.
This month I asked Danni to join me in the sketch challenge. I thought it would be fun to show all of you how to easily translate the sketch to a card!
Here's what Danni came up with. Enjoy...can't wait to see what YOU do!
Danni says:I
chose to create my cards with the new Kate & Co. Oxford Lane line
of papers and embellies, and it was so fun to play with different
interpretations of the sketch.
Supplies: Kate & Co.-Oxford Lane: patterned papers: Floral Burst, chipboard, stickers, designer tape, layered stickers and enamel dots;Misc: Papertrey Ink tag die, Bazzill cardstock
On my first card, So Much Fun with You , I was excited to play with
the chipboard glasses and mustache. These are so cute and so much fun
and this sketch proved perfect to pair the two together.
Supplies: Kate & Co.-Oxford Lane: atterned papers: Handsome, 6 x 6 patterned paper pad, stickers, enamel dots;Misc: Cuttlebug Dry-Embossing, Stitching, Bazzill cardstock
On my second card, Hello, I dry-embossed the background, stitched the
lines as shown in her sketch and used these cute stickers as my focals.
Supplies: Kate & Co-Oxford Lane: patterned papers: Polka, 6 x 6 patterned paper pad, stickers, decorative brads, chipboard, enamel dots;Misc: butterfly punch, Bazzill cardstock
On my last card, Oh So Sweet on You, I chose to use the pinstripe patterned paper and cute a block for the focal with enamel dots and brads for the scattered blocks.
