FHF-Sketch Challenge #3!

Hello!  We have an awesome new Sketch Challenge for you this week!  Wanna see?  Here it is…

I love this sketch!  When trying to figure out what I was going to make with it I remembered a $1 journal I had bought, so, I decided to re-cover it and use the sketch for the front.  Check it out…

Sentiment stamp and pocket watch stamp from Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps.  The ribbon was actually a cream color so I just used brown ink all over it to make it look the way I wanted.  I sanded the edges of the circle.  And the gold charms had little loops on them, so I cut those off and stuck them on there because they reminded me of fancy gears.  I’m totally in love with steampunk right now!:)

Hope you like it!  Be sure to check out the other Sketch Sorority Sisters, too:

Too cool! I've been really into recovering the little $1 bin journals lately - so fun! I love that you colored the ribbon to your liking and used the little gold *gears* :o)
