Sketch Challenges

I have never done too much with sketch challenges but I am finding on days when my creative juices are just NOT flowing that sketch challenges can give me a "jumping off" point. Hero Arts always has a sketch challenge in addition to their theme for the month. You can check out this month's theme, color challenge and sketch challenge here.

Here are a few cards I made. Think I am only entering the first one.

I partially dry embossed the top with a Sizzix die. I know I could have done the entire card but didn't want the rough texture under the pattern paper I attached on the bottom half.

The black pattern paper is from Paper Studio Harper's BOUTIQUE (4.5 x 6.5 paper pad). I am loving all the different shades of black and patterns. 

I layered 3 of these sweet, sweet flowers stamped from Hero Arts CL527 Stitched Frame. Sentiment is a very old Hero Arts CL184 Sayings & Quotes.

Button is my stash from WalMart :) and some paper lace that I have had for a while.

Here are two others:

The pattern paper on the left is Paper Studio Classics. It is their 4.5" x 6.5" paper pad. The butterfly is a digi from Hero Arts Winged Friends and the bow is a Simon Says Stamp die. Both sentiments are Hero Arts.

Thank you ever so much for stopping by.

Blessings to you!
