SKETCH TIME!!!!

Hello everyone!!! I'm back with a brand new sketch challenge for February!!!  This month's sketch is a 3-photo layout full of layering & circular elements - fun, fun, fun!!!

Photobucket

I grabbed my Lasting Love kit & got to work, scrapping some everyday pics of my little man :)  You may notice I used 3 doily-type embellishments for my circular elements.  In the kit, I found a layered sticker by My Minds Eye. Rather than use the embellishment as one, I took it apart & removed the adhesive to give me more to work with - thinking outside the box over here :)  I also flip-flopped the title & journaling.  Remember, a sketch is just a starting point, it's ok to make it your own!!!

Below is a close-up of my title work.  In addition to using the sticker alphas from the kit, I also cut the "you" from a patterned paper.  A little pen detail & added embellishment for the "o" allowed me to create a "dressed up" version to add to my title :)

And finally a shot of these cute little arrows I cut with my Silhouette & then stitched over.  A fun way to draw attention to a photo :)
