Hello and welcome to our Friends of Unity February Blog Hop. This month the theme is a sketch challenge. In my mind, this sketch is fitting to showcase a background stamp or larger single image. For a quick card the background could be some pretty paper or even a photograph you are sending.
Two things that can solve a craft rut is a good sketch or color combo for inspiration. Crystal Minkler has provided us some of the best sketches, but Pinterest is full of them as well. Turn the image left, right, or upside down… any which way to fit the elements inside. Use our sketch for your next creation… we would love to see what you make with it!
Hop
along with the other Friends of Unity and see what techniques are their favorite...
