Well, I'm only about 48 hours late this time, but here it is...this week's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge!!!
In my quest to use my had-to-have-this-set-or-I-might-die purchased stamps this year (and not let them sit for months uninked and unloved in my Stamp Cabinet), I was very proud to have inked up and used this Blooming Button Bits set from PTI within a few days of receiving it last week (which is probably some kind of record for me for non-DT stamps!!). So here's a look at my take on the sketch:
I'm pretty happy with it overall, except for those darn leaves. They just don't feel right. It definitely needed them, but I don't think I placed them well - they just seem unbalanced or something. Oh well!! But I do love the color combo, it's one of my favorites!! The photo isn't great (another last-minute, taken-at-night kind of photo and this was the best I could even after I photoshopped it to within an inch of it's life!). For example, those flowers are actually a really vibrant Pure Poppy / Real Red color IRL, not that gross orange-y color they look in the photo. {sigh}.
If you haven't already, be sure to stop by the other Sweet Sunday Stampers' blogs to see what they've done with the sketch...
don't forget to stop on by to see:
Then play along with us and post your creation using Mr. Linky over on Karen's Blog!
I'll be back shortly with another post....I'll be doubling up on posts for the next few days while I play catch-up after not having internet for the past 4-5 days!!! UGH. So sorry in advance for the multiple posts. I'll be prepared for your "unsubscribes"...LOL!
