It’s time for another Sketch Starter! Are you ready?
As you might know, as a Design Team Member for Altenew, I create monthly inspiration projects that feature two distinctly different projects using the same sketch. I encourage you to give the sketch a try and share your results on social media (tag me @nicolewattcreates), or if you’re a class member here on NWC, upload a project to the comments below!

sketch #05
We’re super simple this time – that means there’s lots of room for fun! Feel free to pin this image on Pinterest for future reference!
fun & flirty 2 ways
I had some major fun with pink this time! I’m really enjoying the Sweet Nothings stamp and die set. The blooms are so large, and there’s enough detail with all of the petals that it really doesn’t take much to add a little color and go. Of course, some gold bling with the thin washi and new Antique Gold Sequins really helps this card shine!

pink & gold
I really like the way this second take turned out. I flipped the sketch, then used the same Sweet Nothings floral to create a beautiful embossed strip. Adding the Sweet Pea Palette washi really took it next level. To finish off the circular element, I pulled in a round of vellum to back the gold foil Fancy For You diecut.

I get a little nervous when it’s time to try a new sketch. I know you said it’s basic, but that’s fine with me. I’m working up my confidence. Watching the video now and will try to follow along and submit soon. Also have a few things in my cart in a couple of shops that I’ll link with you.
This is a great sketch, I love your interpretation.
