Stuck Sketches


Nov 15th - 3 of us Together

My take on 2nd sketch challenge for November.  Pic of me and the kids... we had to take about 20 shots to get one where we all look normal!!!  Used the new Cosmo Cricket Curio, & some old Bo Bunny pp's with a lick of black paint to frame the photo.  The flowers were purchased overseas on ebay and are simply devine (can't really see how good they look in a photo).  Used the doily trim for a bit of contrast, chipboard butterflies which I painted black and a bit of black hand stitching to break up all the red.

Thanks for stopping by :)
