Good morning OA fans, Danni here with you today with a new, fun sketch to the start of our spring colors and weather (fingers crossed)
Here's this week's sketch
How will YOU interpret today's sketch? What stands out to you? Do you see a row of arrows? A row of distressed stamping? Possibly sticker trim?
Here is the card I created from this sketch
I wanted to use some of the diamond-shaped stickers in the OA Midway Line and this sketch allowed me to do so in a fun way
And joining me today is the incredibly talented Jill with her amazing take on the sketch. I am completely WOWED and know you will be too!
Here's what Jill had to say:
One of the first things that stood out to me about Danni's sketch was
the line of arrows at the top of the page. Initially, I thought of
adding an accent line, but then it occurred to me that I could fill that
space in another way, with stamps and mist! I used the clock stamp from
the 9 to 5 stamp set, and stamped the image repeatedly with white ink. I
then added spray ink -- Tinsel and Lagoon Sprinklers -- holding the
nozzles close to the top of the paper and tilting the paper at an angle
to allow the Sprinklers to drip down the page. I then pressed the whole
page against some scrap paper (a large junk mail envelope, actually) to
remove any excess and to allow the page to dry quickly. I then gathered
my papers, photos, and accents together, and stitched across the top.
Without this sketch, this page may never have come into being, and I am
so glad that it did! Thanks, Danni!
I KNOW right? Amazing page Jill, thank you so much!
And, we can't wait to see how this sketch will inspire YOU. If you are inspired to create a layout or card using this week's sketch, please share your creations in our OA Flickr Gallery
We'd love to be inspired by YOUR take!
Happy Creating♥
Danni & Jill
