Sketch challenge

 The next challenge in our group celebration was to use a sketch.  I am in need of another guy card for my nephew so I went with the 49 and market paper and ephemera, adding a die cut wood piece to frame it.


  • 49 and Market - 6x8 Curators Meadow papers and Meadow Laser cut elements
  • Hero Arts - Oval Woodgrain Frames die
  • Tim Holtz - Small talk sentiment sticker

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,

Connie

I love how you framed the mushroom with the wood piece. Truly eye catching. ;)

Awesome! Great use of your sketch and the paper pack and accessories! Love the wood accents! Very masculine-y

I love everything about this card, from the mushrooms to the vintage style papers you used. The wood frame is the such a great way to draw focus to those sweet little mushrooms. You can never go wrong with 49 & Market. Beautifully done, Connie!

This is such a lovely card! I love the wooden frame to help the mushrooms to be the focal point.

Gorgeous, oh, how I love toadstools and mushrooms, love the papers and natural colours with the frame and the added moth/bee is fabulous too..

Perfect guy card! I love the woodgrain frame around the mushrooms!

I'm curious if you struggle with masculine cards because you pound them out and every one is so perfect. This is lovely. The mushroom is awesome for masculine. I happy to literally be working on a Lavinia mushroom card with watercolour, stencil blending, stamping for my girlfriend's birthday. She does alot of artwork so I have to create artistic looking cards.
