and this is what becky had to say:
This sketch brought an idea to my mind immediately and even though I interpreted it pretty literally, I enjoyed pulling it together and adding my own touches. That to me is the sign of a great sketch!
for this sketch, the focal is the argyle background element, so i decided to make that the focal of all my cards and play with the various layering interpretations of it.
hello card

i rotated my argyle element on this card and layered the elements in the center instead of above the argyle. i stitched through the centers of the argyle elements as you generally find with argyle patterns.
on my second card, i decided to rotate the argyle elements vertically so as to create a taller card
best friends card
i layered the argyle pattern once again instead of above it to scale for the card size
(see the chipboard corners? do you ever have some of those leftover or don't like to use them on lo? these are really fun on the argyle pattern)
i stitched through the centers once again
and to show you how easily you could use circle elements, like the ones that come in the 9 to 5 line, i created another secretary appreciation card for hubby to give to another of his secretaries.
what would i do without you?
exchanging the argyle for circles, i stitched through the centers and then layered the elements in the corner
