This is a great sketch to use inchies. I stamped the dotted heart image from PTI Sign Language on 3 Inchie squares and the happy valentines day heart from PTI Tiny Treats - Valentine set on a 4th Inchie square. The squares are mounted with foam tape.
Supplies: Stampe - PaperTrey; Ink - SU! Real Red, Versafine Onyx Black; Paper - PaperTrey; Misc - Inchie Arts Inchies, Ribbon, Foam tape

FTL 76
Here's this week's sketch. I've done something a bit similar with the same visual elements. It's cool how moving something, like a group of 4 squares, can change the overall composition.
If you're looking for measurements, I made my squares each 1 inch. I decided on making a little love card. I really like the brown with a pop of pink, it's fun! The colours are Soft Suede and Melon Mambo. Stamps are from Papertrey Ink (Heart Prints, Signature Greetings).

I'm here today with a simple card I created using last Friday's Fall-to Layout Sketch #75 and the new Raspberry Fizz formulated ink available from PTI. I know not everyone loves the new ink formulation, but I'm not one of them! LOL I absolutely *love* the new inks, the colors are SO vibrant!
Have a great day. :)

Happy Friday everyone! Ready for another sketch?
The sentiment/image panel is 3x4.25 on my card. I used the slot punch to weave the ribbon through. The bow was tied independently, then stuck on. I designed the sketch with the intention of adding images to the top right corner. Feel free to do whatever you like the main panel!

The return of FTL (#74)
Hello! I am officially back from holidays. What better way to get back on schedule than with a sketch. The sketch can easily be made into a one layer or a two layer card. Here's the sketch:
Here are my samples. Since I was reorganizing my reinkers, I was inspired to use them. I got out the baby wipes, a bit of glossy white paper, and got to work. I took one baby wipe, cut it into 3. Next I added a few drops of reinker to the wipe and simply glided it over the white paper. I did that with each colour, then went back over at the overlapping points. Once the swipes were dry, I stamped this delightful dandelion (by Hero Arts) over top with white pigment ink, added a greeting, then put it together on some white textured cardstock. I really like the contrast of the glossy colour with the textured white.
Something I've been meaning to try, but hadn't, was the Mr. Linky widget, so hopefully this works! Leave a link to your version of the sketch! Be sure to include the link directly to your post (and not just your blog) so we can all check it out easily!
