This is my first ever challenge entry. I combined this week's Bandanna Technique (TLC220) and this week's Sketch Challenge (SC22.
I used the bandanna technique to construct my background and around my scallop oval. I considered using a traditionally bandanna-ish paisley stamp image for the background, but decided to stay "closer to home" and instead used a flower bouquet image that coordinates with the ewe stamp. The plaid background paper is hand-stamped card stock using a stripe image and SU pacific point ink.
I colored the ewe image with colored pencils and a Tombow blender pen used with my ink pads.
I had fun rising to these challenges! I'm glad I gave it a try.
Thanks for looking!

You did a great job with your first challenge, and you will be hooked now. It is so much fun to keep up with the challenges. I have just started, too, about two months ago or so. I'll look for more of your cards with the next challenges.
