It's time for another What If? Wednesday Challenge from The House That Stamps Built. This week we have a sketch for you. I love a good sketch, it's such a great starting point for a card. And this one is a good one; so fun!
Here is my card:
The banners in the sketch reminded me of ribbon and I had a couple pieces sitting in my "bits and pieces" stash that were perfect fall colors: yellow and dark brown (every piece used on this card was a scrap; I just cut some of them into smaller pieces). But then I was faced with the dilemma of where to go from there? Those ribbons would be lost against any patterned paper and most card stock. Then I remembered that I had this mini chicken wire die and thought paired with the ribbons that it would add to the autumn look. I hope you'll join in this week and play along; I can't wait to see your take on this sketch.
Right now, Repeat Impressions is having a sale; you don't want to miss it.
