Krafty Tips & Tutes - 1 sketch, 3 ways

Happy Monday Everyone!!!

I am SUPER excited to be sharing with you my 1 sketch, 3 ways Tips & Tutes. I do this ALOT with sketches. They are so versatile and fun to play with and can be played around with to create tons of fun card, pages, or even altered items. Below is my initial sketch.


Using the above sketch I first created the card below using EVER AFTER. I didn't play with the sketch at all on this one. I took what I created and made an exact duplicate. I also included some of our Sparkles too! I kept this card very basic.


For my next card using this sketch I decided to tilt the back two squares and change the focal rectangle to a circle. I kept the other elements the same but by changing those two items it creates a totally different look and feel to the card. I used Springtime Friends for this card.


Lastly I wanted to use this sketch for an altered item. I used one of the card boxes by Boitatou. For this item I needed to increase the length of the sketch. You will notice I needed to space everything a bit further apart. For this on the sketch I changed the circle in the bottom left to a square for my sentiment. I also changed the bottom right rectangle to a bow and moved the other grey piece that runs the length up so it runs behind my image. For this box I used Dandy Lion and Rain or Shine.


Well hoped you like what I did with this one sketch and hope you can try this too!

Cheers!

Hey everyone!  Peggy here again to hostess this week's Wonderful Wednesday challenge!  My youngest son turned 15 this week and I needed a quick and not too fussy birthday card for him, what 15 year old boy wants flowers and lots of bling???  I used Becky's awesome Make a Wish set and a simple monochromatic card with his favorite colour.
