It's Friday and that means another great challenge on the TGIF Challenges Blog!
This is sketch challenge week and it sure is a fun one!
Sketch challenges are one of my favourite types of challenges, they are such a great way to get the creative ideas flowing. The Jan-Jun Mini Catalogue is now live, so I of course had to create with some fabulous new products! The Fine Art Floral Suite is absolutely stunning, full of lovely flowers and textures.
I am a sucker for patterned paper and the Fine Art Floral DSP is stunning. The patterns were created by painting first on canvas, then photographing them and turning them into paper. The effect is Designer Series Paper that truly looks textured. I stamped the "I Miss You" using Pool Party Classic Ink several times without reinking to make a background and the look of extra texture and then slightly crumpled up two of the corners.
For the stamped floral image I used Stampin' Write Markers to ink the stamp. I actually love how using the markers on photopolymer stamps create an almost streaky look, which mimic paint strokes. Because this suite is all about texture I also used the gorgeous Fine Art Ribbon, the perfect neutral ribbon with flecks of gold, to add even more interest to my card.
I hope you can join us this week and make sure to check out the TGIF challenge blog for some more awesome inspiration!
