When I saw the sketch challenge at Freshly Made Sketches this week, I knew I wanted to create a basketweave with the strips. After a bit of experimenting, I found that the narrow 1/8″ taffeta looked just right with the skinny stripes of Sweet Sorbet designer series paper. “Cupcake Party” was a natural fit with the bright, fun colors, and the result is this lighthearted birthday card.
Here’s the sketch – you can see more entries in this challenge at Freshly Made Sketches.
