I was cracking up over "the girls" being so mismatched in size. It reminded me of my mom calling hers Dolly and Parton because one has the temporary implant super filled with saline and is VERY perky and the other is her normal 73yo self.

I'm sorry for the dumb question, but I'm very new to challenges (HYCCT is my first one!!). I want to make sure that I'm understanding what to do for the challenge today. I saw the sketch that you did with the two circles and the triangle shape in the background. Do we need to basically make a card that has a similar look to the sketch and decorate/stamp/embellish it however we want? Does the card need to be square or can I make it more rectangle (as long as I keep the basic sketch look)? Is there anything else I should know about how the sketch thing works?
Sorry again for all of the questions, just want to make sure that I'm doing this right. Thanks!
This is the first time I've used a sketch and I was amazed at how easy it was, thankyou Jimmi for setting the challenge I would never have used a sketch otherwise :lol:

I am unable to quote (computer issue) but will pitch in with my take on an answer for Amy. First of all, you might want to click on the link in jpmayo's challenge post (#1 above) to check out other cards in this particular gallery. I have not yet done so - but usually you find some variation on size and even layout - but a basic following of, as you mentioned, the two triangles and two circles. There will be different embellishments. Someone more knowledgeable than I will certainly chime in.

Exactly what Dorothy said above is right
Glad you are joining us!!!
Use the sketch as your basic layout and inspiration and let your creativity run wild!
Especially important is that you HAVE FUN while doing it.
(Sorry it took me so long to reply, had company over after work, this ismy 1st quiet moment of the day, ah!)
I made a card for this challenge and when it was all said and done I realized I didn't follow the sketch to a "t" - I didn't angle cut the dp! Shame on me! What's done is done so....
