Outlawz Sketch Challenge October 16-22

The Design Team at the Outlawz Sketch Challenge has done it again!!! They have totally amazed me at what great inspiration cards they can come up with from a sketch (BELOW)!!

 
I didn't know if I wanted to make a "gatefold" card or one that just had two matching papers meet in the middle, but I chose the latter choice.
 
Here's my card from the sketch!


Sandi's Samples is our sponsor all month and someone will get a lovely prize for winning the monthly prize. My card is 6 x 6 inches square. I colored the image by Sandi Huggett (Sandi's Samples) with copic markers and used some patterned papers for my background layers.

Normally, I stick pretty close to the sketch, but my central image just seemed to be "floating" out there and so I varied away from the sketch just a little by adding a gold colored embellie to each corner to finish it off.  I think it added some much needed balance.

Hope you will visit the challenge and play along!

I'm also entering my card in:
Sister Act Card Challenge - card
Make It Monday - comment
Lady Anne's Challenge - stamp
613 Avenue Create - Pile It On


Have a great day!!
