Brandi's Sketch with a Messy Twist - Layout Challenge
Hello! Welcome to my first challenge for you this evening! I have recently started designing sketches, for fun, and also for two sketch sites, Stick it Down and Sketches in Thyme which you can find on Facebook! I created this sketch for our crop here at A Cherry on Top and I hope you have fun with it!
But, because it's NSD, I can't stop there! In addition to using this sketch, you'll need to break out some messy goodies! I need to see at least two different mediums on your layout! I used watercolors and a few different sprays for mine! I wanted an intentionally messy looking background with the stencil, so I opted for the watercolors because a little extra almost always sneaks under the template for me!
FAST SCRAP BONUS: I will award cherry points to the first three projects submitted!
The Fine Print:
1. Open to Traditional Layouts ONLY, any size is welcome!
2. Must be a NEW project.
3. Cannot be combined with any other challenge on the boards, with exceptions for the 25 Item NSD challenge and the May/June Bi Monthly Prompt Challenge.
4. All entries must be uploaded into this thread by 11:59 PM EDT on Friday May 17th.
5. ONE Entry per Cherry
6. A winner will be selected per random.org
The prize for this challenge is this fabulous Flower Bundle generously provided by our sponsor Altenew!

Great sketch! Nice idea to have the fast scrap bonus -- although I am too slow and tired to give it try tonight!

I want to do this, but don't think I am up to making a mess this evening. Yours looks wonderful!

Awesome sketch! I'll probably work on this tomorrow if I am not too distracted with Sunday's schedule of fun.

I hope this is okay with only one picture...I love your layout design! This was a lot of fun. I used metallic watercolor, regular watercolor, and ink.

Re: Brandi's Sketch with a Messy Twist - Layout Challenge
Looks like fun! Hoping to get one of these done before May 17th!
Re: Brandi's Sketch with a Messy Twist - Layout Challenge
this was a great challenge, my mediums are spray on the background, the lunar paste through a stencil to make the vine, stamped berries colored with copies, and various inks on the edges of the squares.

I used Solar Paste with a stencil in the upper right hand corner and then I splattered with Rose Gold paint to spread the shine around the layout a bit.

Re: Brandi's Sketch with a Messy Twist - Layout Challenge
Here is mine! Messy I got, too. I sprayed oxides through a stencil, and splattered with spray stain. Also, stamped with ink on the tickets. And the retangles and squares are cut form geli prints made with acrylic paints. Even some scraps of alcohol ink panels. Great sketch and great prize. Thank you, for hostessing.

I used two sprays to make splatters and also stamping with splatter stamps in two ink colors.
