Designed To Color Challenge: Sketch


I did a little free interpretation of this month's sketch challenge over at Designed to Color!  Here's my card.....


I flipped the sketch over and used a button treatment idea I found on Pinterest to interpret the circle elements of the sketch.

This image is from Penny Black and it's called Nature's Best. I colored it in with Faber Castell Polychromos pencils, using a Copic blender to blend some areas of the background.


Thanks for stopping by!

    Love the twine with the buttons, and the way the earthy colors play so nicely against the traditional red and green
