Challenge #374 - Sphere of Influence

It's sketch time, and this week's sketch, by teammate Jan, is magical! Spheres do seem to have special qualities: the moon, the sun, unity, containment, infinity & complete symmetry! You can have a lot of fun with this one. As always, you can change the shapes, flip it, turn it, but make sure we can recognize our sketch!

Challenge #362 - Bits and Pieces

Of all of the types of challenges we offer, sketch challenges give you the best basis for constructing your card. You provide the colours and images, but the basic layout is done for you. It might be the most helpful of all our challenges. This week, our team mate, Jan C., has given us a more intricate design for our sketch, but I'm really excited to see the beautiful card designs that will arise from it! Here's the sketch:

challenge #362

Remember, you can turn the sketch on it's side, invert it, or change the shape of the focus shape in the middle, but please keep the integrity of the sketch, so it's recognizable.

Check out the work of our Design Team, using this sketch:

Our winning entry, Jennie, the Featured Artist, has created a sympathy card uses a very soft blue and green plaid in the background that gives such a calming, comforting effect, that it is perfect for a sympathy card. She topped that by using such sweet flower shapes for her circle shapes in coordinating colours of yellows, blues and greens. And the sentiment sets just the right tone. Congratulations on being our Featured Artist, Jennie!

Challenge #356 - Rectangles & Circles

My creativity is at a new low today, hence the brilliant title for this week's sketch challenge! Well, it does the job, doesn't it? Thanks to our former teammate, Jane, we have this interesting sketch combining the two shapes, and it's easier to just show you the challenge banner, isn't it?

 As with past sketch challenges, you can flip the sketch on it's side or reverse it, as long as you keep the integrity of the sketch! Feel free to change the shape of the circles as well.
