Super Sketchy Sunday

We got a great sketch today and were challenged to use certain words -- I stuck with the easy one "Friend".  I made 2 cards from the sketch and went in totally different directions.  TFL


Supplies -- K&Company ancestry.com paper & Basic kraft paper
Ink distressed the edges with Tim Holtz distresser and then inked them in brown.  
The title was cut from Tim Holtz grungeboard using Jasmine cricut cartridge; and then I used a sueding technique on them.
I colored them in brown with a sharpie and then chalked them to give them a suede look.  



The fish are a digital stamp from squigglefly.com.  The papers are all scrap.  The letters are cosmo cricket tiny type.  

I thought it was fun that one sketch could produce 2 totally different cards.
