Happy Wednesday to you! I took a little bit of a break last week to catch up on home things and to even clean my stamp room. Seriously, it was out of control and I needed to reorganize before I could work in there anymore. I’m sure you have been there!
I’m the sketch hostess this week over at Freshly Made Sketches and I wanted to make a sketch that could be interpreted in a few different ways. I chose to go with it “as is” and made a little frame using my Stitched Shapes Framelits. If you follow the Newton’s Nook Designs newsletter, you saw how I created these leaves for yesterday’s “Designer’s Nook”. They use the Autumn Leaves Dies and are so pretty!! The background is the fabulous Wood Textures paper by Stampin’ Up (a go-to for fall, don’t you think?!). I added a piece of the 5/8″ Burlap Ribbon as another layer of texture. The sentiment strip was cut from the same paper that I used for the leaves (where I had splattered ink) and this stamp is from the July Paper Pumpkin. Don’t forget how much those add to your sentiment repertoire! I found a few sequins in coordinating colors so of course I had to throw them on!
I hope you enjoy this sketch. The design team has tons of inspiration, as always, and I would love to see you in the gallery! Thanks so much for stopping by today! See you soon!
