Sketch in the round

It's my favorite week at H2H - sketch week! And this time around we have 2 sketches to choose from -




You can make a circle shaped card or have the sketch appear as a layer on a card - make sense? It will if you check out all the goodies the DT created over at the blog! And here is my card:



Now, did I follow my own sketch correctly? No. I switched the 2 strips behind the image and put the longer one on the bottom rather than the top. And those 3 little circles on the sketch? Did away with them and added a flower. But that's ok - sketches are just a starting point and can be interpreted with your own style. As long as you can tell there was a sketch you were working with in the first place, no problem! That's my answer and I'm sticking to it!

Hope you'll play along this week for a chance to win a mystery prize from ME! Have a creative week!

Your non-literal interpretation of the sketch is lovely. The flower is a nice touch.

Mary your card is stunning! I love the colors. (How fun that we both thought of using ribbon instead of paper strips. Great minds think alike! LOL!) *Ü*
