Welcome back! After an extended holiday break, Freshly Made Sketches is back with a new sketch! This week's sketch is brought to us by
Rita.
I love crafting in the fall and in the Christmas season. I love the themes of those seasons - gratitude, hope and joy - plus the colors of those seasons are my absolute favorite color schemes. Gratitude, hope and joy are perfect themes throughout the year, but I do like a change from the color schemes. I pulled out spring berries and I used corals and fresh greens. (But I kept the hope and joy!)
I noticed in the sketch that the panel goes slightly off the edge; I love that look so I did the same with my berries. I trimmed the main panel to be only 4" wide so that even with the bit that's off the edge, it will still fit in a standard envelope.
I hope to see you playing along with us for the first sketch of 2018!!
