I love Pinterest. But, truth be told, I often forget about that wealth of inspiration. The other day I spent some time going through it and came across this pin that I thought would work perfectly for a sketch.
And here's the sketch that it inspired...
I invited the wonderful Miss Amy to lend me a hand and she created this awesome card based on the inspiration and sketch.
I love all of Amy's details! Here's what Amy said about working with this sketch, "I just love Marcy's sketch and her inspiration piece is really fantastic. I love the grid of squares and decided this would be a fun sketch to use on a card. I stayed pretty true to the sketch, and simply offset the grid to the right on my card, and tucked my title up above it and off to the left. I used my brads in the center of some of my squares to give them some dimension, texture and added color."
I decided to leave most everything how it was too.
I love the brads. They work for so many different themes!
For the "Recorded" tag I simply removed the brads and adhered it to a piece of scrap paper. From there I could load it in my typewriter.
I hope you enjoy the inspiration piece and the sketch. Let us know if you give it a try!
