Stay true to the general feel of the sketch, but for example the tag shape can be another shape or embellishment you like; you can rotate, flip or stretch it. Just make sure we can see the "bones" of the sketch!
Here's what we created:
Stephanie says, "I fell in love with this Grinch Stamp set from Gina Marie Designs. I stamped his hand on the green tag and then paper pieced the ornament and sleeve. I used a metallic pen for the ornament cap. I added some Eyelet Outlet Clear Swirl Bling flourishes and finished with some EO Holiday Bling in the tag corner."
Lauren says, "I flipped the sketch horizontally, and chose a mug rather than a tag, but I think I've done a fairly faithful adaptation. Most of my ingredients are Prima, from the Santa Baby collection; plus a bit of non-holiday paper from Pretty Pale. I used tape for the sketch's horizontal band and a Tim Holtz/Sizzix die for those pink flourishy things, which I thought looked a bit like steam rising off the delightful mug of cocoa."
And one lucky participant will get the awesome Laurels Dies from Paper Smooches.
