Freshly Made Sketches 418

Hey there!  It's time for a new challenge at Freshly Made Sketches!  Our hostess this week is Jacquie and her big curved layer leaves lots of room for interpretation.  I chose to go in a super CAS direction.



I did a little post-Christmas crafty shopping recently and picked up this great leafy stamp set from Altenew so I was anxious to ink it up.  That big curved layer on the sketch gave me lots of room to put down some of the images.  I chose a gray and some greens then added a simple sentiment.  Both the curved layer and the sentiment are popped up on foam tape to create some dimension which, happily, allowed me to play along with the latest challenge at Just Us Girls.


Thanks for stopping by!  As usual my amazing teammates at Freshly Made Sketches have created cards that will absolutely inspire you to play along with us.  So I hope you do!

Supplies
Stamps:  Leaf Clusters (Altenew); Simple Sentiments (Avery Elle)
Paper:  Solar White (Neenah)
Ink:  Silver Stone, Forest Glades, Evergreen, Jet Black (Altenew)
Accessories:  Stitched Basic Edges die (My Favorite Things)
