Happy Little Stampers- Sketch Challenge



Hi everyone! This month at Happy Little Stampers we have an interesting sketch challenge.



I was flummoxed  by this challenge. This sketch almost got the better of me. Then I started thinking about the shapes of color as windows and some how the card came together. 

Using various rectangle dies I cut windows in black card stock. The sentiment window I cut through both the black card stock and the base card. I wanted to have a window where the congrats would peep out from the inside of the card. Instead of sold colors behind the windows, I used a selection of pattern papers.


This card was a bit tricky but I think the results were so worth it. As usual I take these challenges quite literally, so ya have to check out what my fellow DT did. There are some very clever takes on this months sketch. Be sure to  play along at HLS sketch this month!

Melissa over at honeybeelane suggested I link up my card at Virginia's View Challenge. Virginia is looking for geometric patterns. I have never played along with Virginia, but the going back and checking out her blog, I think I will be playing along from now on! Thanks Melissa!
