Wednesday Sketch Challenge, 28th March - 11th April

Hello, after showcasing some of my designs in a crafty Facebook group, I was invited to join in the latest Wednesday Sketch Challenge. I rarely do join in but this time, having woken during the night with an idea, I thought I'd have a go.

My apologies if you're getting fed up of In The City, I promise I'll put it back on the shelf soon - honest.

I sometimes use design sketches as a kick start when my mojo has left the building. I find them far less restrictive as you can choose whatever stamp set you want to use. Also, you can get totally different looking cards by carefully selecting your embellishments even with the same layout.

I chose to use Lots of Labels for the 2.5"x3.5" element; while the right height, it just falls slightly short on width but I think it should be ok. I stamped the cloud and sun to create my own DSP for the full length strip. It's a little difficult to see. Sadly I didn't think to photograph it before adding to the card base; each element shows up better in real life.

I used the sentiment "May the adventures continue" from the Glamper Greetings photopolymer stamp set as I thought it could be used for a moving or leaving card. It would also be suitable for someone travelling on a gap year. Let's be honest, we're all begininning to think of our Summer holidays after such a dreary Winter.
