There is a new sketch up on the Try a Sketch on Tuesday Blog. This is Challenge #687, a biweekly challenge that runs through Sunday, February 1st, at noon EST.
One interesting aspect of sketch challenges is how far a crafter can go "outside the box" with their interpretation and still meet the challenge requirements. On my card, for example, patterned cardstock was used for the scene. A hill in the background with trees and buildings was substituted for the mountains in the sketch. The circles in the sketch have been replaced with images of boats. The bright white bird was already present, adding interest to the scene.
The scene was mounted on a black mat and then layered onto a red mat. This was adhered to a white card base. The interior was decorated with fussy-cut trees and a small boat from the scraps. The required sentiment was stamped and adhered with foam tape to finish off the card.
The Design Team invites you to join the challenge. To see the guidelines, visit the TSOT Blog. There is also an array of cards created by the Design Team that may provide inspiration or ideas for your own creation.
Our sister challenge, Double Trouble #208, is also open. If you use the TSOT sketch above and your project qualifies for Double Trouble, you will earn a chance in the random drawing.
Thank you,
Melanie
