STAMPlorations Challenge #6 Sketch

Hi all -  I'm thrilled to be a guest designer today for the STAMPlorations Challenge #6 Sketch!   My entry was chosen the winner for Sketch #3 on this post and I won 3 digital products from All About Scrapping as well as being asked to be guest designer for this new sketch!   It's a fun one don't you think?

I got some digital papers as part of my 'winnings' and used a piece of a Splash of Grunge sheet for my card background.   I added die cut arrows from MFT and a simple sentiment from Waltzingmouse.  I thought the paper was perfect with the circles already printed on it!
I haven't stamped anything inside my card yet -   I might use it as a graduation card - or a new job card - or for someone making a big decision in their life.

I hope you'll join us in the sketch challenge this week.  STAMPlorations has monthly challenges (with prizes) posted on the 1st Friday of the month, as well as bi-weekly sketch challenges posted on the 1st and 3rd Monday of the month.   Maybe you'll win a prize and be a guest designer too!!

I'm also entering this in the CAS on Sunday Challenge - Make it Masculine!

Stamps:  Words of Wisdom - Waltzingmouse
Paper:  White, true black - PTI, DP - Digi Splash of Grunge - All About Scrapping Etsy Shop
Ink:  Archival Jet Black
Accessories - color printer, foam dots, Lead the Way (arrow dies) - My Favorite Things.
