CAS(E) This Sketch #81


Welcome to Week 81 of CAS(E) This Sketch!  This week we're teaming up with Fusion for a joint challenge! We hope that our joint challenge will inspire you to play along with both challenges this week.  Just a note for all of you, to play in the Fusion challenge you do not necessarily have to use the sketch but to link it up to our CAS(E) this Sketch challenge, you will have to use the sketch.  We hope to see tons of cards using the sketch and the inspiration photo (good for both challenges) but you are welcome to only use the sketch (good for both challenges) or only use the picture (Fusion challenge only).  We'll leave that up to you.  We are just excited to have you join us both!


Aren't the Fusion photo and the CTS sketch so perfect for each other?  I took my inspiration from the gold butterfly and the white linens.  I know there's no blue in the Fusion photo but I knew I wanted my butterfly and vellum flag to really pop and I just felt like a dark blue was the way to go.  That's the beauty of all these challenges - they're really just staring points to get your minds whirling.  And I can't wait to see where your minds whirl this week!  Be sure and check out all the gorgeous design team cards both at CAS(E) This Sketch and Fusion and then play along!
