LETS GET SKETCHY = MARCH WEEK 1

This year is going so so fast - it will be Easter before we know it !  It is time for a new challenge at Lets Get Sketchy and here is my take on the awesome sketch by Brenshevia.  This is a photo of my mum heading to high school.

I have flipped the sketch - but had to move the title to fit in with the paper.

I have used the beautiful Pion paper - Vintage Garden Collection.  The butterflies have been fussy cut from the same paper collection and Maja Design papers.  Flowers are from Petaloo and Iamroses.  i have used Distress Ink - Worn Lipstick,  around the edges of the paper.  I have used a  Scrap FX stencil with Bo Bunny Copper Glitter Paste.

The chipboard has been embossed with Lindy Stamp Gang Embossing Powder - Geranium Coral Blush.

Here is a copy of the sketch:

Last DT Reveal for D-lish Scraps for February .. Graduation

My last post of the month at D-lish Scraps is of a photo that I am very proud - My son's graduation from Year 12.  The world is now his oyster and time to make his path in life.

I used Kaisercraft Collection "off the wall" for the background page.  I have used a 13 arts stencil and texture paste and then distress paint " mustard seed" and Shimmerz paint Jeni B Bleu.

I have layered behind the photo with Monochrome Colour Journal Its pack

I have coloured the chipboard arrows with black ink

The background stamp I have used is from Kaisercraft -  "arty".  Currently my favourite stamp!

I have coated this wood veneer quote with Distress Paint - Mustard Seed

Some more close ups:

Thanks for stopping by.  That is it for me this month at D-lish Scraps, but I will be back next month with another set of layouts.  Til then Happy Scrapping :)

FINAL DT REVEAL FOR THE MONTH AT SCRAPBOOKIT

Hi there again - this is my final reveal for this month at Scrapbookit.  As you will have noticed I have loved the collection by Kaisercraft.  This layout was created with the moodboard using the first square "who are you".

As this photo was taken back in the 1970's I thought the paisly paper was right for this era.  I did white wash it to blend it into the background a little so that my photo and embellishments would stand out.  As the paper was fairly busy, I decided to keep the rest of the layout simple but effective.  Here are some close ups:

It has been great creating these layouts this month, I hope that you have enjoyed seeing my layouts, and dont forget to have a go at this months awesome moodboard. You can find the link here

Happy scrapping til next time :)
