OWH Sketch #132


1st Attempt

2nd Attempt
  I am really loving this sketch...it's kinda an "art bit".  I thought my first attempt card was okay...had started with the papers.  Because of the shortened diagonal strip I placed the sentiment vertically which is always awkward to me.  My second attempt at this sketch is better even with no sentiment.  I only used part of the stamp...I really just wanted trees.  A little sewing for some added umph along with three metal colored brads for that added guy bling.  A side note to check out Sybrina's blog regarding a super secret nomination (well as secret as posting on a blog can be)...definitely do not tell Ciara...she cannot keep a secret!  Here's the link:  http://scrappingwithpurpose.blogspot.com/

  7. Both of these are very pretty. The hello is so cheery, and the trees has a more serene feel. I love them both.
