Hi, everyone, I’m back with this week’s MFT Wednesday Sketch Challenge! Are you ready? Here’s this week’s sketch. All of the details about the sketch challenge are available on the MFT Challenge & Inspiration blog as well as in the weekly newsletter. The MFT Design Team will be on hand to provide plenty of inspiration to get you started.
I refrained from doing a shaker card with that circle in the center, LOL! It was hard but I managed and I did have fun with this design. I started with a Stone Gray card stock base. On more Stone Gray card stock I stamped Wood Plank Background with Cement Gray dye ink. Then I overstamped that with the sentiment from Go Overboard, again with Cement Gray dye ink but substituting Wild Cherry dye ink randomly. I created a sailor’s knot with white cotton yarn and wrapped it around for the vertical element of the sketch.
For the square element, I used some paper from the just-released Sweet Sunshine Paper Pack and popped it up on foam mounting tape. I added the life saver from Let’s Get Nautical Die-namics, created with Sweet Tooth card stock and Wild Cherry card stock, adding some white cotton twine for the handles. I popped it up on foam tape and finished off with some red glitter paper stars cut with Blueprints 13 Die-namics and Blueprints 25 Die-namics, along with a couple enamel dots.
And that’s it from me today! Thanks so much for stopping by! See you soon!
