Welcome to week #3 of the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge! I'm so glad you've stopped by and I hope what I have to share will inspire you to play along with us this week. :) We really have fun visiting your galleries and blogs when you play along! It' SO inspiring to see how everyone interprets each new sketch challenge. Thank you for being a part of it with us!
This week I decided to try using the sketch not on a card, but on a journal. One of my very good friends, Denise, whom I've known for over half my life has inspired me with her lovely little gallery of these altered books. This is just an example of how a sketch can be used in more ways than one. Have fun! Think outside of the box and show us what you can do! :)
Supplies: Journal from $1 bin at Michael's, SU stamps, SU watercolor pencils & inks, Shimmer Mist~iridescent gold, Cuttlebug embossing folder, ribbon, rhinestones, glitter, silk flowers, Core-dinations card stock, and machine stitching
