Hi all.  Today I have a layout for Lets Get Sketchy which was based on a sketch by Jenessa Franco.  I have flipped the sketch and created this layout:

I have used Graphic 45 Rare Oddities Collection paper. The background stencil is by Stencil Girl and I have used Shimmerz Paints - texturez "artie choked",  Love this texture paste.

Here are some close ups:

I have cut and placed strips of paper in the background, applied gesso and then some Lindy Stamp Gang Magicals - Grab a Guy Gold, Bells of Ireland and Silks Paint - Love Struck

The beautiful Prima Flowers. Chipboard has been embossed with Lindy Stamp Gang Embossing Powder - Oakleaf Olive.

LETS GET SKETCHY DESIGN TEAM REVEAL - WEEK 1

Hi there - May is upon us already and that means a new challenge at Lets Get Sketchy.  This weeks sketch is from Brenshevia and I have used a photo of myself and my friend that was taken on the dress up night at the Scrapping with the Stars Retreat in 2014.

I have gone with the bold blue and yellow to match our outfits. The background paper is Studio 75 "Miss Olivia 02".

I have used a Crafters workshop stencil "Random Stars" and then inks - Dylusions "Lemon Zest" and "London Blue"  Glimmer Mists "Marigold" and "Jazz Blue".  Some final touches with black ink.  

I have stamped a Tim Holtz stamp on the background.

I have used plain card stock for the layers to offset such a busy background.  I have added a few flowers from Iamroses and die cut doilees.  The chipboard title is from Dusty Attic which was a special run for the retreat.  I have embossed this using Zing Metallic Blue powder.

Here is a copy of the sketch

and here are some close ups:
