Sketch #53A

Please give a huge Pencil Line's welcome to the talented Andrea Gourley who is joining us today as our Guest Design Team member and who also provided this card sketch for today's Challenge.

   

Here's a few words from Andrea: "I am Andrea and from Newcastle Upon Tyne in North East England (UK) - hence my forum user name of Geordie Girl.

I've been papercrafting for most of my life, I've always made cards and have scrapbooked for the last couple of years as well as recently branching out into ATCs and altered art but with my own distinctive style.  I love mixing digital elements with more traditional styles and adding texture and detail with machine stitching, doodling and ribbons.

My other fascination is with fabric and I love creating rag doll Angels and Bunnies as well as home furnishings and fashion accessories.  I can think of nothing more rewarding and self encouraging than starting with a blank piece of paper or metre of fabric and ending up with my own self made piece of art.

I enjoy being on the Design Team for GoGoGreetings as well as a member of the inspiration blog It's A Creative World.  I have my own blog which is a record of my adventures in paper and fabric crafting as well as snippets of my life as a teacher in a busy Primary Special School and a 'not quite a grown up' stay at home daughter!"

You can see more of Andrea's lovely work on her blog *here*.   

To celebrate Pencil Line's birthday and Andrea's sketch, ScrapaGoGo are going to provide a prize of one of their yummy GoGoGreetings Kits for the Design Team's favourite piece done to Andrea's sketch so make sure you get your artwork to us by next Wednesday for a chance to be picked.

Remember - just becuase the sketch looks like a card or a layout doesnt mean you have to use it for the same purpose - here the team have done cards and layouts.

I know I'm a couple days late, but I made a challenge for myself to complete all the sketches posted this month at Pencil Lines. So here is 53a:

Cool sketch Andrea, very versatile.
I finished a 6x6 page with it. This one is for my 101 Facts about me album.
