Tuesday Morning Sketch Challenge #711

 

Welcome to my blog, where I have
a new card to share with you each week for

Tuesday Morning Sketches 

 

 

 

  Here is the sketch for this week:

 

 

 

Looking at the sketch, my first thought was to make a card with Christmas ornaments.  But my Christmas stuff is under the bed and I just didn't feel like dragging it out.  I contemplated turning the sketch upside down and using balloons.  But that didn't do it for me.  A bee hive with little bees buzzing around was my next thought.  I started looking through my digi stamps, wondering if I had a pretty fuchsia plant with dangling flowers.  No luck.  And then I came across an old digital stamp from Becci's stamps which I thought would be perfect.  

 

 Now that I've given you all sorts of ideas, I hope you'll join the fun at Tuesday Morning Sketches Challenge this week.  

My teammates have also created wonderful cards sure to inspire you.

Double Trouble Challenge # 29 GD Card #2

Double Trouble " Brown Bag-It Day" Challenge is in its second and final week.  Won't you join the fun?

THING 1: Trouble Maker

says, "In celebration of National Brown Bag-It Day, I've asked the Unknown Comic from the late Gong Show to inspire our challenge. Use Kraft paper, even a paper bag for your project."

Don't get the Gong, come play aLong!

Don't stop here...for more fun check out the optional Sketch challenge below.

THING 2: Double Dare

says, "What a great sketch to use for Kraft as an accent in your design, so many choices of what panel(s) to use." 

It's Optional...if you use this sketch you can also submit to Try Stamping on Tuesday Challenge #409 between the dates of May 28th - June 4th. Link your project HERE and you will receive an additional chance at the Double Trouble Random Draw. 

Use the DT cards below for ideas or use your own interpretation of the sketch. Feel free to change the orientation... rotate the sketch or use its mirror image. You may also modify shapes as long as we can see the basic sketch in your project. 

THING 3: Twisted Sister

says, "In my opinion I've been berry, berry good. Celebrate National Pick Strawberry Day with me and include strawberry(s) in your project and you can earn an additional chance at our random draw." 

Although not required, the sketch offers a perfect opportunity to use strawberry(s) as an embellishment or focal point.  

It was so awesome to be adopted into the

 Double Trouble Challenge family 

as a crazy cousin for the month of May 

that I made a second card.

For this card I used a precolored digi image of strawberries from Becci's Place, a kraft card base and kraft borders and I've followed the sketch above from Challenge #409 at Try Stampin' on Tuesday.
