Wow, it was quite a week over at Freshly Made Sketches with the big one year anniversary! The entries were all so spectacular and the design team ended up choosing two Queens of Clean (because it was just too hard to narrow it down any further!). Congratulations to LeAnne and Narelle! I’m so excited to work with them during October. This week we are back to new sketches and wow does Tui have one for us! The design team has come up with some awesome inspiration with this cool layout!
It seems that I can’t count because I obviously used the wrong number of strips behind the image but I think I kept to the intent of the sketch. Somehow, these were just the sizes the panels “needed” to be and this is all the fit! All the work here is really done by the Howlstooth & Scaringbone DSP. I mimicked the angles in the patterns in my cuts to the DSP. I kind of like the overall effect. The mummy just called out to be used again so I popped him up on a Dimensional and added the sentiment. The button is really a Cajun Craze button from the Regals set but it really goes well here. The texture on the circle and the background is from the Square Lattice Embossing Folder.
Ok….I hope you enjoy this fun and challenge sketch! You’ll be glad you tried it and we can’t wait to see what you make!
I got a little extra stamping time this week so I’ll be back tomorrow with another card! Yea!! Have a super Wednesday!
Stamp: Googly Ghouls; Paper: Howlstooth & Scaringbone DSP, Tangerine Tango, Basic Black, Very Vanilla; Ink: Basic Gray; Accessories: Big Shot, Square Lattice EF, Googlies, Regals Buttons

I just love that mummy! If he was sold separately, he’d totally be mine. 🙂 Sketches are all about inspiration, so no counting required. (says the tired mom who probably can’t count at this point!) Super cute, fun card.
Hi Jennifer! Love that mummy and DSP! Yup, I finally broken down and got my own ghoulies set. You all were driving me crazy with it! LOL! Great card! Have a great week!

Counting is overrated! And I work in a bank, so I’m an expert at counting! I love how you mixed up the DSP. That’s one terrific background for that darling little mummy!
