Million Dollar Moments

The sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches is really cool this week.  Using a sketch or a color challenge helps me so much because it gives me some direction.  For those of you that struggle with the creativity side of stamping, I highly recommend looking for sketches.  On The Freshly Made Sketches site, you can even access all the past sketches!  Find a sketch you like, see what stamps will work with it, pick a color that you want to work with and then either use the Color Coach to help with the other colors or pull out some dsp for the color direction.  These are the steps I take and they really help me when I need to make something original.  Here is the sketch:
And here is what I created:
