CAS(E) This Sketch 176

This has been such a crazy week at work and I am so glad that it is nearly over and that it is Thursday.  Happily it is also the day where we debut a new sketch at CAS(E) This Sketch.



There were so many ideas swirling around my head for this sketch.  That wide open layer leaves much to the imagination.  After tossing around a few ideas in my head I decided to go with some purple colors from the Less is More challenge and a bokeh design for the background.  The sentiment banner was cut with Vellum and the sentiment itself was cut multiple times in my shades of purple and glued together to give this some dimension.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope that you have a chance to join us at CAS(E) This Sketch this week!

Supplies:
Paper:  Sweet Tooth (My Favorite Things); Concord Crush, Perfect Plum, Whisper White, Vellum (SU)
Ink:  Wisteria Wonder, Perfect Plum, Concord Crush
Accesories:

Your take on the sketch is fabulous and I love your choice of the pretty sentiment diecut! Had a laugh when you mentioned that all that "wide open layer leaves much to the imagination", whereas in my case, it causes me to break out in a sweat LOL
