Yay, time for a brand new Wanna Sketch! I love this one. Kinda partial… I know, but I really do love it. I’m so glad you stopped by to see what the next sketch will be. I hope you will be inspired to play along too. It will be fun, I promise.
I started out with the pretty bird stamp from the Strength & Dignity stamp set by Unity. If you hurry, you can still get this stamp set for only $26 AND till November 18th at midnight, Unity will donate $1 to help the victims of the Philippine Typhoon. An amazing time to place an order if you have been waiting.
I found some soft and pretty patterned papers to play with. I put the busier pattern behind to help tame it. Then, I stamped the bird on the lighter sheet and added the sentiment in a lovely bluish color. I just happened to have some sequins that matched my ink perfectly, but they are HUGE! When I ordered sequins the first time, I didn’t quite know what size they should be. So, I ordered a variety and these just happened to be the largest of the bunch. I love them, but they were just too big for this card. I used my hole punch to cut out the middle. Problem solved. Yay.
I hope you love the sketch and will play along too. The linky will stay open until Friday, December 13, 2013 {11:55pm PT}.
Can’t wait to see what you come up with!

I love it – such awesome problem solving! That bird is gorgeous, and I love the background stamp behind it 🙂
This is gorgeous! Great way to solve your sequin dilemma!
Gah! LOVE this! That patterned paper is GORGEOUS, and the sequins – you are a total smarty pants! Brilliant, seriously!
You hole-punched sequins to make them smaller. That is true problem-solving! 😀 What a beautiful card, Lisa, with just the right pops of blue and bling.
Gorgeous! More fab inspiration Lisa!
sigh, super love.
Thanks for the awesome inspiration Lisa!
