This week at Freshly Made Sketches, Rita has given us a sketch that seems straight-forward but I found to be a little tricky. I'm sure she didn't mean it that way (right, Rita?), but tricky is what I saw.
To complement the sketch I was inspired by the current Muse challenge which features a card designed by Ardyth Percy-Robb and features a lot of circles. I wanted to incorporate circles onto my card where the scallops on the sketch were and got it in my head that interlocking circles would look pretty cool. In the end I think they look like the Olympic rings gone bad, but what do I know? Here's Ardyth's very cool card:

I love your monochromatic take on the Muse card - you have the same fun, bouncy movement with those looped circles! I'm so glad you played along!
I LOVE this card! Those red circles are so fun! Soooo super cool! I'm pretty sure Rita meant to trick us!!!! Love the washi tape!!!! You are the queen of washi tape!
Uber cool, Jen. I can't even imagine what you would create if you didn't find a sketch tricky, considering this one rocks both challenges!!
I'm always impressed when someone combines two or more challenges! I can rarely ever do that! Fabulous card!
Love all of those circles, Jen!
Always love your gorgeous, simple style - I'd never have thought you found this tricky. Great use of the washi!
Very cool, brilliant overlapping circles and I love the washi tape banner! Anita :)
Great card - love the monochromatic colour choice and the graphic nature of the circles.
You have such a gorgeous clean style Jen - your circles look perfect on your card. Love the pretty colours too!
Gorgeous card, Jen! I love how you cleverly used the circles for one of the elements of the sketch. Great colors and a beautifully clean card.
I think this is great Jen! It actually reminds of a sketch I have in mind that is based off of some presentations I saw when I was at the IBM conference last October. Your card looks fabulous!
I love your card and all those circles...very nice. :)
I would never be tricky! ;)
I love what you did with it. It's a very fun take on it! The circles are super awesome!
