This morning, Purple Pumpkin's March Sketch Challenge has gone LIVE!
It's one of my faves, this one and I think you'll love it too.
Firstly, here is my layout...
I drew my own scalloped shape freehand and it was really easy to do! I've created a different kind of background here, a "rippy-strippy" background. Basically I've taken some glimmermisted paper, ripped it into long shreds and stuck it down onto a contrasting sheet of patterned paper so that little bits are seen through the ripped strips. Then I've sewn and distressed around the edges... :) I was inspired by the linear stakes and foliage in the photos.!
I've got some yummy Purple Pumpkin goodies on here...
Like Carnival Tickets, a Fabric Lollipop Flower, a cute Scooter Button and that large denim and yellow fabric flower - that I topped off with a string bow!
Here's the sketch (that I love) by Sara Noendeng...
I simply swapped the two staggered photos for four staggered photos! I love staggering photos, do you?
You have until the end of the month to complete this sketch and link it up in Purple Pumpkin's sidebar by midnight 31 March 2012. There will be two fabulous Purple Pumpkin prize packs to give away - one winner will be chosen by the design team, and the second will be a random prize draw!!!
We hope to see lots of entries once again this month, and don't forget to pull out your big box of Purple Pumpkin goodies to see how great our products work with this sketch!
BTW - I've been rather busy working on secret squirrel scrappy stuff this week... I will be able to share one of my very exciting secrets here VERY SOON!!!
TFL!
love your layout, and a gorgeous sketch
