SS 761 - A World with Octobers

 Welcome to Sketch Saturday Challenge 761!

The optional theme (in addition to the sketch) is to use orange. 

I had a hard time with this sketch... I could only see a snowman's rear end for the longest time! I finally settled on some pumpkins and a large sentiment. 

I created the blue background by scribbling on vellum with Copic markers. That was splattered with rubbing alcohol. While waiting for the background to dry, I stamped, coloured and fussy cut some pumpkins and branches. I also die cut a stitched border for the bottom. The vellum piece was wrapped around white cardstock and adhered to the card base. The sentiment was masked so the word Octobers would be in orange. I added the pumpkins at the bottom and placed three orange gems along the border piece. I used a blue marker to doodle around the border of the card. 

Come and join us at Sketch Saturday and show us how you interpret this sketch. 

You have two weeks to link up your project.

We can't wait to see what you create!

Enjoy, 

Alyson
