I get to host the sketch challenge over on Splitcoaststampers again this week; I'm filling in for Holly on our usual rotation. I'm sharing a super fun sketch based on a card I spotted in the gallery by notimetostamp, which also happens to be perfect for the Hump Day Challenge that Bridget is hosting over in the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps member company forums. It's all about using two or more patterned papers on your card.
I fiddled with the sketch a smidge (as usual). My sentiment panel is scooted more towards the center, as opposed to completely on top of the largest circle. However, I didn't want to hide my pretty, off-centered tulips! I used three stamp sets to make this card. The largest circle has the Friendship Script set stamped in it, and then the Spring Tulips stamped towards the edge and colored. I added a sentiment from the Love Sentiments set.
I know the pic isn't the greatest...I'm still without a camera, and relying on my phone!
Hope you can play along with one or both of these challenges this week!

Taylor, your phone pic is really good, and I'm loving the rich dark pinks and kraft - stamping on kraft is something I don't do enough because I just LOVE the look of it - the hemp twine is just perfect!
