Isn't this a fun sketch?! I had planned to stick with the repetition in the sketch - maybe flowers or stars, but as I was digging through my stash I saw this birdcage that I just had to have yet I've never used it.

Freshly Made Sketches: Kindness
It's time for a new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches! Today we have a sketch by Jen Brun.
There are three different birdcages in the set - all very elegant and detailed. I layered the birdcage four times and, sadly, the last one got a little off-kilter so it looks a little blurry.
This sketch could go in so many different directions. I can see sticking with it as is and using colorful circles for a wonderfully graphic card. Or stars for a congrats card. Or soft flowers. I LOVE sketches like this!
I hope to see you playing along.
SUPPLY LIST
The striped paper is Echo Park Bundle of Joy Dots & Stripes 6x6 pad.

And the bird cage is gorgeous and elegant indeed.

ReplyDeleteI loved this card when I saw it on the private blog and I still love it! Such a clever take on the sketch and that birdcage is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteHi Kim,
ReplyDeleteOh I'm diggin' this birdcage and branch - sooooo clever!
Was this a die? I only have like 4 dies ... total, so can't imagine forgetting to use one LOL.
I think it was brilliant of you to layer it up for height - your card will probably be displayed for a long LONG time!
Blessings

ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic take on that sketch! The bird cage and the branch are wonderful images to evoke those circles. And if you hadn't mentioned the off-kilter layer I'd never know it was there!
