Hi Girls,
I have the new
Once Upon a Sketch challenge for the month to share with you.
This month we have the usual fabulous sketch by Nadia, for inspiration, and the theme is:
Anything Goes
Yes! You read right.. No theme this month. You are free to create a layout based on whatever theme you like. You can journal as little or as much as you like, but your layout must include
SOME journaling AND the sketch below.
Please make sure that we see some sort of journaling on your layouts and please tell us where your journaling is. Hidden journaling is perfectly fine. Pop on over to the site and prepare to be inspired by the gorgeous creations from our super talented Design Team... don't forget there will be another reveal from the Design Team on the 15th of the month.
Don't Ever Change
For this challenge I decided to create a LO with a message to my daughter Brittany. She has almost finished Year 12 and I am so proud of her. She knows exactly where she is headed and what she has to achieve to get there, which I think is no mean feat at such a young age. I love that she is so confident and ready to take on the world and all I can hope is that she doesn't ever change and that she will always chase her dreams. I have added a tag on the left hand side with hidden journaling. I would like to thank the gorgeous
Irini Liolia for sending me some of her beautiful handmade crochet flowers which are available from her Etsy shop
Get Creative Embellishments. I have used one of Irini's crochet flowers in the flower cluster at the bottom left of my LO.
List of Materials: MME and Bo Bunny pp's, Scrapbook Fantasies ribbons, Get Creative Embellishments crochet flower, D'Lish Scraps wild roses, cherry blossoms and leaves, Craft Queen mini roses, MME chipboard, 7 Gypsies fabric tape, KandCo tag, Anita's foil butterfly stickers, Crafters Workshop stencil, Viva Decor Inka Gold, EK Success border punch, American Crafts alphas, Glitz Design alpha stickers, paint
