OWH Sketch Challenge #140

Here is my interpretation of this week's OWH Sketch. I was actually surprised to find this sketch more of a challenge than I first thought. After playing around with it the designs I was coming up with felt simple but seemed to lack 'something'. Ultimately I used the sketch as a basis and added a few things. 


Printed Papers by K&Co. • StampinUp (Sizzix) Butterfly Die
Doily Die by My Favorite Things
Jute Twine, Jewels & Sentiment from Michael's Crafts Bargain Bin

I think the butterflies and doily die cut add interest without obscuring sketch. The writing on the paper is stamped on to the printed DSP, and though it's a minor addition, sometimes the 'small' things make a big difference.

Happy Crafting Everyone!

Gorgeous take on the sketch Paula! Your butterflies and doily are just subtle enough to keep the focus on the sketch design!

Paula,

What a beautiful card -- it's just so pretty! I especially love all the small details and dimensions that you've added that so delicately enhance the sketch and sentiment. You are absolutely right about little things making such a big difference.

Thanks so much for playing along with this week's sketch challenge -- and thanks for all you do for OWH!
