Hi friends! We've got a great new sketch for you at Freshly Made Sketches. Our hostess is Jacquie and her sketch is a classic one for sure! I had fun rotating the sketch to accommodate these fun triangular trees.
So. My triangular trees seem to be layered a little haphazardly but there's a story there! I started by inking and stamping a lot of those triangular trees. As I fussy cut them out I put them down in the same spot on my desk. When I was done they were layered in a way that looked pretty interesting to me. Some were upright and some were twisted this way and that. So cool! So using a piece of Press-N-Seal I managed to preserve the layout and put all those trees down as the focal point on my card. The colors I used were inspired by the challenge at Christmas Card Throwdown.
Thanks for stopping by! Of course you can count on my fellow Freshly Made Sketches teammates to have made some great cards with this sketch. So be sure to check them out!
