It's Saturday and so that means Sketch Saturday and I'm glad to say I'm back :). Jo has given us another challenging sketch for this week to play with and in her intro she herself suggests that maybe this sketch would be suitable for scrappers as well as cardmakers... and since I'm both (but don't do a lot of scrapping these days) I thought... let's do a scrap page. But first, let me show you Jo's sketch for this week:
See what Jo means... perfect for a scrapbook layout as well as a card. Here is my layout with the sketch:
You can click on the picture to see a larger view. The picture is of my two girls and was taken last May when my youngest daughter Amy was not even two months old. Dyanne (my oldest) was three at that time. The title reads All Girl and underneath I have added some journaling in Dutch about how lucky I am to have my two girls and that I hope that next to being sisters they'll turn out to be good friends to as they grow up (they are so cute now when they play together). The paper and title is all Minds Eye and gorgeous and glittery. The stars are budget stars I picked up at a Dutch store called Kruitvat but I thought they worked very well on this page.
Please check out the gorgeous examples of my fellow Design Team members and our talented guest Designer Susan on their blogs and on the Sketch Saturday blog. And while you are there check out the gorgeous prize our regular sponsor:
offers this week. If you weren't motivated enough to join us this week that surely will motivate you a bit more. Can't wait to see what you girls come up with!!!
Have a great weekend everybody!!
