Friend - Freshly Made Sketches

Our fabulous creator and owner of Freshly Made Sketches, Lesley... is hosting our challenge this week, and I think your gonna love it .... it's a sketch gone wide!

Only thing is ... I didn't realise it was wide a sketch, I just thought it was small and short ... duh! Anyway, these challenges are only there to spark your creative imagination and so I created a small, short card ... I think its really cute, but you be the judge ...

My card base is a 6" x 6" and folded in half to get a 3" x 6". I love this size, it's small, but not mini, and you get 4 out of a 12" x 12".

After I posted this card to the challenge site, I felt that it looked kinda dull, so I added some white gel stitching and whitened the dots on the flower ...

Why not get creative with us and have a go at these long, wide cards too!
