This sketch looked like a good opportunity for me to stamp a background. Diamonds a a girls best friend right? I stamped a rainbow of pretty diamonds!! I took all the small diamonds from the Sparkle and Shine set and arranged them on an acrylic block. So I didn't stamp the diamonds as an arrangement - not one at a time.
Remember that the sketch is just for reference, a rectangle does not have to be a rectangle. I switched mine for an oval shape for my sentiment.
The little star sprinkles are clear multi faceted gems. Instead of a banner hanging from the oval I threaded a bead on a sewing pin. I found the bead in the jewelry department at the craft store. I wanted something clear - again with many sides to look like a gem.
Are you ready to play now? Maybe a little more inspiration from the Challenge Design Team?
Ok.. now you're ready right? I hope you join us at Sugar Pea Designs Challenge! You can find it on the blog by clicking the "current sketch" in the right margin.
