Hello

   I was inspired today by the sketch on Try it on Tuesday.
 

 
 I was inspired by the sketch on Try A Sketch On Tuesday challenge, it was
simple and striking at the same time.  It was fun going through my
snippets (scraps) and pairing them up, I used a old Kaiser Kraft paper
pad and an old partial background which I used for color inspiration.
After pairing the papers I picked a few more snippets from the
pack for the Pinkfresh Studio Hello die and broke out a new butterfly die
from IO. This may become my go to sketch to use up some of my
patterned paper packs!

 A few fun challenges:

    The mix of snippets you pulled together gives this sketch such fresh energy. The patterned pieces feel intentional and balanced, and the soft colors from that partial background tie everything together beautifully. The layered Hello has great presence without overwhelming the design, and the new butterfly die adds just the right touch of movement. This really does look like a perfect sketch for using up paper packs in a way that still feels polished and cohesive.

    Great job of using scraps of patterned papers. I love the shiny background that is revealed through the die cuts. Great effect. Thanks for joining us at Try A Sketch On Tuesday.
