This month we have decided to give you a sketch challenge to play with for a chance to win £10 to spend in our store.
The sketch can be a card, a scrapbook layout, a paper based gift, anything you like as long as the sketch is the jumping off point for your inspiration. You can rotate the sketch too so if you'd rather play landscape than portrait, or if you want the triangle at the bottom and the circles at the top - then that's fair game too. You don't need to interpret the shapes literally - see Tara's make as an example of what you can do with the sketch. We just need to see that you started with the sketch as inspiration - new makes only please, back links won't be accepted.
You have until noon on the 31st October (GMT) to play along and we'll remind you as we go through the month and we hope you'll find it a fun sketch to work with.
Whilst we'd prefer to see products we sell in our store used in this challenge, it's not a requirement for entry.
For her challenge inspiration entry, Tara's taken the triangle and circles and interpreted them with flowers using Primrose Garden from Concord and 9th [Top Tip - you only need to cut one large flower - snip it half to layer it as the other half would be hidden behind the banner!] The bird and acorn are from Woodland Basics Die from Wplus9 which is on clearance at 75% off so grab a bargain! Subtle texture in the background comes from the Pierced Plaid die from The Greetery and all the card comes from the new range by Altenew which Seven Hills Crafts are doing in sample packs so you can get all 50 colours to try!
Thanks for the lovely comment on my blog and for a great challenge. I love seeing what other crafters have done with this sketch xxx
