Pals Paper Arts Sketch Challenge


Well, hello there! I'm here today with another lovely sketch challenge at Pals Paper Arts from our Resident Artist, Margaret Moody. I'm loving today's layout...


DEEtails:

Hexagons are everywhere, aren't they? I love how their bold geometric pattern somehow brings a delicate detail to everything. Today I've used the Hexagon punch on some Whisper White card stock stamped with the Dictionary image in Basic Gray. I laid out my pattern on some Crisp Cantaloupe - are you loving this color as much as I am? And added a bit of Coastal Cabana Ruffle Stretch Ribbon underneath. I'm dying to do something totally creative with this ribbon, but so far, it's just been my go to trim to add on the edge of stuff... Next, I added some Smoky Slate Chevron Ribbon and the sentiment from Lots of Thanks. A few butterflies punched from Crisp Cantaloupe and Coastal Cabana DSP and adorned with rhinestones finish things off.

I hope you'll stop by Pals Paper Arts for some more fabulous inspiration from our Resident Artists. Then pull our your crafty goods and create something inspired by Margaret's sketch and link up!
