For my peek, I started with this week's Deconstructed Sketch and some beautiful papers from Echo Park's This & That Christmas 6x6 collection. More on the sketch in a minute, but first, a close-up of the poinsettia, which I made with two of the Joyous Noel images, each stamped twice for a total of four layers. I topped the flower with some decorative hardware and a jute string bow.
And now for this week's Deconstructed Sketch. Here's what we're playing with this week:
I'm love love loving the circle sketch! (If you're not, feel free to adapt the sketch to a square or rectangle. We're flexible like that!) Jen Shults has links to the Deconstructed Sketch Girls' samples, as well as the entry form, over on her blog. Hope to see some of your fabulous sketch creations this week!
