When I saw the current Little Tangles challenge:
I knew I had to play.
Here's my card, then I'll explain:
Just Add Ink:
and Colour Me ...!:
Here's my card again so I can see it when I start explaining:
I played several times with making the plaid, and I used this one since it was the straightest. I made a second one that I like better, but it wasn't stamped straight enough to cut straight and not leave you with vertigo, so I used it on another card for a different challenge.
The colors I used for the plaid were Hero Arts Tide Pool, Butter Bar, and Charcoal. After I trimmed out the straightest part of the design and stuck it to the card front, I added a sentiment from Lawn Fawn, popped up on foam tape.
I thought it still needed something, so I added some Neat & Tangled Summer Sun sequins at a few of the intersecting charcoal lines.
This is a great sketch. So great, in fact, I played it again. See my next post for my second entry.
Thanks for stopping by!
