Freshly Made Sketches 356

Well hello!  If it is Wednesday it must be time for a new challenge at Freshly Made Sketches.  Our hostess this week is the lovely Jen Brum.


As is well documented here when I see a sketch with three of something like those long tall panels I tend to go straight into panic mode.  But I usually recover by stamping a wide image and cutting it up into three distinct layers.  So that's what I did here inspired by the colors of Michelle's card for Muse Card Club.  And I actually dug deep into my stash here for some grosgrain ribbon - which I used for that black horizontal layer.  It feels good to use some of that old stuff in my stash!

I hope that you are inspired to join us at Freshly Made Sketches!  Our design team has made some great cards to get your creative juices flowing so I hope to see you in the gallery!

Paper:  Solar White (Neenah); Black Licorice (My Favorite Things)

I love your idea of splitting one image into three panels! And I love the bright red with the clean black and white. Such a pretty card, Jen!

I always love a triptych! And the black and white scheme makes the card so graphic & modern! Thanks for sharing.
