Brand New Sketch Challenge

Hey all! For all the sketch junkies (like me), there's a brand-spankin' new challenge you can join in on. Every Friday on the OCL Blog, there will be a sketch posted with a Mr. Linky box at the bottom for you to link all your creations. Sound fun? I think so!



Our first challenge was just posted today and here's the card I made for it. It was a fun sketch that Broni came up with. My bunny and sentiment are from Hoppin' Into Spring, one of the most recent sets released at CHA. The bunny panel, scallop mat panel behind it, and the sentiment are all up on separate layers of foam tape. I colored the bunny with Copics and added little accents with my Diamond and Waterfall Stickles.

See the *leaves* (or maybe you think they look more like bunny ears??...yeah, I think they could pass for bunny ears) behind the button and sentiment? I used one of those sparkly white flowers from Michael's, you know those flowers that are found in the wedding isle? Hehe, I thought they made cute leaves (or bunny ears) behind the flower button.

I hope you'll join in on the OCL sketch. If you do, be sure to add your info to the Mr. Linky box. Have a great day!
