OWH Sketch # 112

If it is Sunday, it must be new sketch time at Operation Write Home Stars & Stamps blog.

Here is the sketch and my card.
I flipped the design sideways and worked with an old spring-friendly stack of designer paper.
Hope you like it!

Stars & Stamps Our Daily Bread Designs Challenge

The challenge this time is to choose three elements in a row either vertically, horizontally, or diagonally (as in a tic-tac-toe matrix) and incorporate them on a card. This was a great challenge and I decided to use "stripes, layers, and die cut".

Our Daily Bread Designs will be making a shipping donation based on the number of cards. ODBD will sponsor one large box of cards for every 25 cards linked to the challenge post, with a maximum of 2 boxes per month. So tell all your friends to come and enter the challenge too! Post your cards at the Stars & Stamps blog.
