Every Friday, Keesh will post either a sketch or a colour challenge on the Inkspirations Challenges Blog, her new, dedicated challenge blog, so you can come along and join in the fun. In addition, each week a winner and an honorable mention will be chosen.
This week, Keesh has given us this wonderful sketch to work with and I combined it with Stacey's Curtain Call challenge. Loved the mix of rust, orange and mustard, and as luck would have it, I had some perfect DPs to work with!I over stamped the sentiment with a Verve leaf in pumpkin pie to get that colour in the mix, and since my butterfly die was still out on my desk I used it in lieu of the flower on the sketch. Adding to the fun, was being able to use my newly acquired Lacy Square Nesties. Be forewarned, this could become one of my new addictions LOL!
Below is a list of the talented ladies I get the honour of working alongside for the next six months. You can check out their blogs for some inkspiration (sorry, couldn't resist) to get you started on this week's challenge:
