It's Monday again and time for another Clean and Simple challenge. I am so excited to be the Clean and Simple Guest Designer for today's challenge, which is a sketch challenge inspired by Loll.
I knew immediately what I wanted to do - a sentiment over different desinger papers; however, my final design was more of a layered look because I could not get the sentiment to stamp over the different heights of paper! Regardless, I love the end result. I turned Loll's card on it's side and used different papers and sizes as she did on her card with stamped blocks. Instead of directly stamping the image as she did (so pretty!), I created a sentiment panel.
Thanks for looking!

Kelly, I really like your take on Loll's wonderful sketch. I like how your more subtle DP rectangles do not overwhelm your beautiful sentiment layer. Congratulations on being this weeks Guest Designer too. TFS
