Magistical Memories' Jan Guest Design Team sketch challenge

Here's the sketch by Tina for the January Guest Designer challenge

 over at Magistical Memories . 

You can use any brand of chipboard to take part in this challenge 

and remember the winner gets LOTS of fun chipboard goodies

 to play with throughout their month as Guest designer!!

And my take featuring the new Budding Swirl chipboard piece( design by Nicole Lombardo ) 

I thought this chipboard design would work well

 with some of the new Glitz Design Scarlett & Hoopla papers . 

On my budding swirl chipboard piece here ,

I first dry brushed some off white acrylic paint and before it dried up, 

I glimmer misted using Tattered Leather. 

I  colored the bud using red distress and green stickles .   

Just had to do a technique-y layout with these papers - 

love their vibrant colors of course ! ;) 

I've also incorporated a rhinestone swirl design by Nicole Lombardo

( one of our featured sponsors)  for some added swirls in bling.

Hope to see some of my scrappy pals taking part in this challenge ! 

Alas, there can only be one winner at a time but you gotta play to win in the first place ! ;)
