I’m quickly becoming addicted to the Card Patterns Blog sketches. This time I “had” to create two different cards in different looks. OK. I will admit to stretching the sketch a little but if you look close, it’s all there. 🙂 I created these Saturday…a very rainy day so we didn’t get to the beach but I DID get a few designs created, relaxed and also found my desk again! Fast forward to Monday…I was out shopping, the fabulous scrap supply kind :), and came home to an e-mail from Card Patterns. I won the sketch 26 challenge last week (card here) and will be next week’s guest designer. How cool is that?! Stay tuned….
Anyhow…here’s the sketch, the link and my interpretations. 🙂

The square center of this design may be a little hard to see but I DID incorporate that part of the sketch. I stitched the square element onto the paper. I found this turquoise paper while cleaning my desk. Yes, I know it’s amazing what is to be found there. As I absolutely adore it, I had to use it up rather than throw it out. It’s actually interesting how many of my favorite projects use those desk scraps!
