{ My Boy }

Sinds kort zit mijn vriendin Mieke in het design team van "Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge" blog en deze week hebben ze een bloghop en een sketch challenge. Gisterenavond bedacht is opeens dat ik eraan mee wilde doen en niet alleen omdat Miek mijn vriendin is, maar ook omdat het gewoon een leuk challenge-blog is èn omdat ik opeens zo'n zin had om met deze papieren van My Little Shoebox te spelen!

As of the beginning of this year my friend Mieke joined the design team of "Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge" blog and this week they're having a blog hop and a fab sketch challenge. As I just love sketches I couldn't resist! So here's the layout I created last night: my youngest a few years ago:

Dit is de layout die ik gemaakt nav hun schets, Matsje een beetje jonger dan hij nu is:



I used the "Heartfelt" line from My Little Shoebox (patterned paper and stickers), flowers from Prima and Petaloo, gems flourishes from Colorbök, a Prima canvas bird and leaves, pearls from Inkido, "words-to-go" from K&Company and letter stickers from Adornit.



And this is the sketch it's based upon: 


The sketch was only half of the challenge, the layout had to be about a memory of me belonging to a girl scouting group too. As I have never been part of a scouting group I and I most certainly have no photos of a young "me" belonging to any group I decided to do the page about Mats (who is half me) at the age when he belonged to a music group. He had NO clue what he was doing but he loved to sing and to play all the musical instruments. :) Such a shame I never took a camera with me (how could I have been so dumb?).

If you want to play too, you have until February 28!!  Here's the link!

Thanks for stopping by and have a fabulous weekend everyone!
Big hug,
Monique
