Break is almost over (I do have Monday off). Sigh. I know I won’t be able to keep up with the challenges once I’m back to work, but I do hope to stamp every day.
This card is for the Freshly Made Sketches challenge.
This was a tricky sketch for me. And despite having some awesome inspiration (from the DT as well as other players), I floundered a bit. I do like the finished card, but something is off and I wish I knew what it was.
Thanks for taking a peek!
