OWH Sunday Sketch #51

The OWH blog has a new Sunday Sketch posted. I loved the sample card's use of the circle as an image element instead of a sentiment. I decided to look for something that could work as the circle first as base my card around that.

I found Colorbok's destination rub-ons in my stash. The compass had colors I liked and was the perfect size to fit the sketch dimensions. Flipping through the stack of rub-ons, I spotted this cute car. Perfect! Just to amp up the masculine element, I added some argyle paper and weathered looking eyelets. I love the look, but I hated these rub-ons! They need a TON of pressure to adhere and it took several minutes to adhere each image.

    most of our cards are so feminine (go figure) but this one is a great one for the guys.
