Freshly Made Sketches with Rita

Hi y'all, and thanks for popping back - it's another sketch challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches ... and wow ... what a great turnout we had too, so many beautiful entries and so many more ideas for my CASE files ... "thank you"!

This week our hostess with the mostess is the fabulous Rita, hailing from Texas. Rita has got some serious talent and a great sketch for the week.

And here is what I created ... an oldy, but still a favourite!

I coloured the tree with copics, added the woodgrain background to the frame, some espresso twine and a sentiment .... done!

Now that you've seen mine, you really need to on over to Freshly Made Sketches and check out some real inspiration for our DT! Hope to see your creation in the gallery!

I have some really exciting news to share with you tomorrow .... check back in then, I can't wait to tell ya!

Have a great day!
