I combined the sketch challenge with Julie Buhler's "Colour Concoction" challenge!
Thanks for looking!
ETA: the oval ... wow, never thought I'd get tons of questions about it! It's actually pretty simple. All I did was die cut the oval using the Ovals #2 die from Stampin' Up!. Then, I sewed an oval inside it, snipped into the oval every 1/4" or so, roughed up the edges, and then inked it. Easy peesy!
