Winners for Sketch 735

The Clean Team has chosen their Princesses for you this week and Kim has chosen the Queen: 

Nancy from inkblocks



I had so much fun looking at all of the cards in the gallery this week! Many of you said it was a hard sketch but that didn't stop you from coming up with truly amazing cards with such a wide variety of creative ideas. I fell in love with Nancy's card. Partly because she used circles even though my introduction to the sketch said it had squares as a break from all the circles we'd had! Mostly because the patterns in those fresh white circles on the kraft background were so wonderfully eye-catching.  Congrats Nancy, you are the Queen of Clean!!


Join us tomorrow for a new sketch from Verena!

Freshly Made Sketches #735 - A Sketch by Kim

Welcome to Freshly Made Sketches!  Each week, one member of our design team creates a sketch for you to try.  The challenge is to follow our sketch while keeping your project clean-lined and fresh.  The "Clean Team" has come up with some "Freshly Made" designs to get you in the spirit.  We are so excited to see what YOU create!

It's Kim and I'm bringing you this week's sketch! At the point that I put this together, we had had a lot of sketches with circles so that sent me in a very different direction. I went with squares - lots of squares! I used tiny die cuts in each one but I can imagine pattern papers or textures or something other than squares. I look forward to your creative ideas! Enjoy!!
